So the greatest common factor 84,142,897 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 843,144,874
2 | 843, 144, 874 |
3 | 843, 72, 437 |
281, 24, 437 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 281 x 24 x 437 = 17682768
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17682768
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 84/843,142/144,897/874 is 1/17682768
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 843,144,874 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(843,144,874) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(843,144,874) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(843,144,874) = ( 843 × 144 × 874 ) / 6
LCM(843,144,874) = 106096608 / 6
LCM(843,144,874) = 17682768
