Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/285480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 28/40,55/13,125/549 is 1/285480
Least Common Multiple of 40,13,549 with GCF Formula
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 40,13,549 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,13,549) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,13,549) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(40,13,549) = ( 40 × 13 × 549 ) / 1
LCM(40,13,549) = 285480 / 1
LCM(40,13,549) = 285480
