Lets's calculate LCM of 435,904,827
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 325209480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/325209480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 38/435,18/904,848/827 is 2/325209480
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 435,904,827 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(435,904,827) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(435,904,827) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(435,904,827) = ( 435 × 904 × 827 ) / 1
LCM(435,904,827) = 325209480 / 1
LCM(435,904,827) = 325209480
