So the greatest common factor 73,17,557 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 867,516,628
2 | 867, 516, 628 |
2 | 867, 258, 314 |
3 | 867, 129, 157 |
289, 43, 157 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 289 x 43 x 157 = 23412468
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/23412468
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 73/867,17/516,557/628 is 1/23412468
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 867,516,628 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(867,516,628) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12
GCF(867,516,628) x common factors =1 x 12 = 12
LCM(867,516,628) = ( 867 × 516 × 628 ) / 12
LCM(867,516,628) = 280949616 / 12
LCM(867,516,628) = 23412468
