Lets's calculate LCM of 437,317,986
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 136589594
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/136589594
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 30/437,29/317,956/986 is 1/136589594
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 437,317,986 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(437,317,986) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(437,317,986) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(437,317,986) = ( 437 × 317 × 986 ) / 1
LCM(437,317,986) = 136589594 / 1
LCM(437,317,986) = 136589594
