So the greatest common factor 73,242,727 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 603,339,837
3 | 603, 339, 837 |
3 | 201, 113, 279 |
67, 113, 93 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 67 x 113 x 93 = 6336927
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6336927
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 73/603,242/339,727/837 is 1/6336927
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 603,339,837 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(603,339,837) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 9
GCF(603,339,837) x common factors =3 x 9 = 27
LCM(603,339,837) = ( 603 × 339 × 837 ) / 27
LCM(603,339,837) = 171097029 / 27
LCM(603,339,837) = 6336927
