Lets's calculate LCM of 852,394,761
2 | 852, 394, 761 |
426, 197, 761 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 426 x 197 x 761 = 127729284
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/127729284
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 40/852,94/394,277/761 is 1/127729284
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 852,394,761 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(852,394,761) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(852,394,761) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(852,394,761) = ( 852 × 394 × 761 ) / 2
LCM(852,394,761) = 255458568 / 2
LCM(852,394,761) = 127729284
