So the greatest common factor 674,492,316 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 19,84,979
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1562484
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1562484
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 674/19,492/84,316/979 is 2/1562484
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 19,84,979 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(19,84,979) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(19,84,979) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(19,84,979) = ( 19 × 84 × 979 ) / 1
LCM(19,84,979) = 1562484 / 1
LCM(19,84,979) = 1562484
