Lets's calculate LCM of 457,546,387
3 | 457, 546, 387 |
457, 182, 129 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 457 x 182 x 129 = 32188338
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/32188338
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 71/457,29/546,741/387 is 1/32188338
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 457,546,387 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(457,546,387) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(457,546,387) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(457,546,387) = ( 457 × 546 × 387 ) / 3
LCM(457,546,387) = 96565014 / 3
LCM(457,546,387) = 32188338
