Lets's calculate LCM of 502,619,129
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 40085202
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/40085202
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 24/502,20/619,874/129 is 2/40085202
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 502,619,129 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(502,619,129) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(502,619,129) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(502,619,129) = ( 502 × 619 × 129 ) / 1
LCM(502,619,129) = 40085202 / 1
LCM(502,619,129) = 40085202
