Lets's calculate LCM of 328,755,481
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 119114840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/119114840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 78/328,164/755,270/481 is 2/119114840
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 328,755,481 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(328,755,481) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(328,755,481) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(328,755,481) = ( 328 × 755 × 481 ) / 1
LCM(328,755,481) = 119114840 / 1
LCM(328,755,481) = 119114840
