So the greatest common factor 58,12,957 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 473,141,287
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19140891
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19140891
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 58/473,12/141,957/287 is 1/19140891
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 473,141,287 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(473,141,287) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(473,141,287) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(473,141,287) = ( 473 × 141 × 287 ) / 1
LCM(473,141,287) = 19140891 / 1
LCM(473,141,287) = 19140891
