Lets's calculate LCM of 787,282,255
3 | 787, 282, 255 |
787, 94, 85 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 787 x 94 x 85 = 18864390
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/18864390
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 71/787,946/282,940/255 is 1/18864390
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 787,282,255 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(787,282,255) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(787,282,255) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(787,282,255) = ( 787 × 282 × 255 ) / 3
LCM(787,282,255) = 56593170 / 3
LCM(787,282,255) = 18864390
