So the greatest common factor 37,46,280 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 555,417,792
3 | 555, 417, 792 |
185, 139, 264 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 185 x 139 x 264 = 20366280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20366280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 37/555,46/417,280/792 is 1/20366280
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 555,417,792 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(555,417,792) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(555,417,792) x common factors =3 x 3 = 9
LCM(555,417,792) = ( 555 × 417 × 792 ) / 9
LCM(555,417,792) = 183296520 / 9
LCM(555,417,792) = 20366280
