So the greatest common factor 27,897,276 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,16,365
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 134320
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/134320
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 27/23,897/16,276/365 is 3/134320
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 23,16,365 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,16,365) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,16,365) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,16,365) = ( 23 × 16 × 365 ) / 1
LCM(23,16,365) = 134320 / 1
LCM(23,16,365) = 134320
