Lets's calculate LCM of 277,545,927
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 139944555
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/139944555
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 40/277,64/545,397/927 is 1/139944555
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 277,545,927 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(277,545,927) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(277,545,927) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(277,545,927) = ( 277 × 545 × 927 ) / 1
LCM(277,545,927) = 139944555 / 1
LCM(277,545,927) = 139944555
