So the greatest common factor 86,140,477 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 503,911,473
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 216744209
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/216744209
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 86/503,140/911,477/473 is 1/216744209
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 503,911,473 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(503,911,473) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(503,911,473) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(503,911,473) = ( 503 × 911 × 473 ) / 1
LCM(503,911,473) = 216744209 / 1
LCM(503,911,473) = 216744209
