So the greatest common factor 77,42,335 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 361,612,637
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 140733684
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/140733684
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 77/361,42/612,335/637 is 1/140733684
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 361,612,637 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(361,612,637) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(361,612,637) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(361,612,637) = ( 361 × 612 × 637 ) / 1
LCM(361,612,637) = 140733684 / 1
LCM(361,612,637) = 140733684
