So the greatest common factor 86,434,378 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 70,83,197
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1144570
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1144570
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 86/70,434/83,378/197 is 2/1144570
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 70,83,197 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(70,83,197) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(70,83,197) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(70,83,197) = ( 70 × 83 × 197 ) / 1
LCM(70,83,197) = 1144570 / 1
LCM(70,83,197) = 1144570
