So the greatest common factor 62,384,996 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,61,487
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 712968
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/712968
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 62/24,384/61,996/487 is 2/712968
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 24,61,487 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,61,487) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(24,61,487) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(24,61,487) = ( 24 × 61 × 487 ) / 1
LCM(24,61,487) = 712968 / 1
LCM(24,61,487) = 712968
