So the greatest common factor 54,42,346 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 39,835,674
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21948810
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/21948810
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 54/39,42/835,346/674 is 2/21948810
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 39,835,674 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(39,835,674) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(39,835,674) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(39,835,674) = ( 39 × 835 × 674 ) / 1
LCM(39,835,674) = 21948810 / 1
LCM(39,835,674) = 21948810
