So the greatest common factor 40,82,136 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 965,717,683
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 472571115
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/472571115
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 40/965,82/717,136/683 is 2/472571115
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 965,717,683 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(965,717,683) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(965,717,683) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(965,717,683) = ( 965 × 717 × 683 ) / 1
LCM(965,717,683) = 472571115 / 1
LCM(965,717,683) = 472571115
