Lets's calculate LCM of 239,888,231
3 | 239, 888, 231 |
239, 296, 77 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 239 x 296 x 77 = 16341864
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/16341864
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 500/239,504/888,773/231 is 1/16341864
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 239,888,231 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(239,888,231) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(239,888,231) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(239,888,231) = ( 239 × 888 × 231 ) / 3
LCM(239,888,231) = 49025592 / 3
LCM(239,888,231) = 16341864
