Lets's calculate LCM of 779,867,748
| 17 | 779, 867, 748 |
| 779, 51, 44 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 17 x 779 x 51 x 44 = 29717292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29717292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 257/779,661/867,667/748 is 1/29717292
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 779,867,748 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(779,867,748) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 17
GCF(779,867,748) x common factors =1 x 17 = 17
LCM(779,867,748) = ( 779 × 867 × 748 ) / 17
LCM(779,867,748) = 505193964 / 17
LCM(779,867,748) = 29717292
