So the greatest common factor 36,700,461 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 38,99,961
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3615282
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3615282
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/38,700/99,461/961 is 1/3615282
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 38,99,961 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(38,99,961) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(38,99,961) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(38,99,961) = ( 38 × 99 × 961 ) / 1
LCM(38,99,961) = 3615282 / 1
LCM(38,99,961) = 3615282
