Lets's calculate LCM of 239,561,435
3 | 239, 561, 435 |
239, 187, 145 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 239 x 187 x 145 = 19441455
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/19441455
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 68/239,56/561,894/435 is 2/19441455
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 239,561,435 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(239,561,435) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(239,561,435) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(239,561,435) = ( 239 × 561 × 435 ) / 3
LCM(239,561,435) = 58324365 / 3
LCM(239,561,435) = 19441455
