So the greatest common factor 43,197,252 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 958,375,709
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 254708250
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/254708250
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 43/958,197/375,252/709 is 1/254708250
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 958,375,709 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(958,375,709) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(958,375,709) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(958,375,709) = ( 958 × 375 × 709 ) / 1
LCM(958,375,709) = 254708250 / 1
LCM(958,375,709) = 254708250
