Lets's calculate LCM of 553,292,769
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 124175044
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/124175044
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 48/553,20/292,486/769 is 2/124175044
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 553,292,769 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(553,292,769) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(553,292,769) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(553,292,769) = ( 553 × 292 × 769 ) / 1
LCM(553,292,769) = 124175044 / 1
LCM(553,292,769) = 124175044
