Lets's calculate LCM of 998,701,493
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 344901814
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/344901814
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 425/998,655/701,355/493 is 5/344901814
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 998,701,493 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(998,701,493) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(998,701,493) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(998,701,493) = ( 998 × 701 × 493 ) / 1
LCM(998,701,493) = 344901814 / 1
LCM(998,701,493) = 344901814
