Lets's calculate LCM of 187,164,487
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 14935316
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/14935316
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 39/187,636/164,970/487 is 1/14935316
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 187,164,487 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(187,164,487) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(187,164,487) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(187,164,487) = ( 187 × 164 × 487 ) / 1
LCM(187,164,487) = 14935316 / 1
LCM(187,164,487) = 14935316
