So the greatest common factor 59,136,789 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 145,281,187
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7619315
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7619315
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 59/145,136/281,789/187 is 1/7619315
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 145,281,187 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(145,281,187) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(145,281,187) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(145,281,187) = ( 145 × 281 × 187 ) / 1
LCM(145,281,187) = 7619315 / 1
LCM(145,281,187) = 7619315
