Lets's calculate LCM of 791,336,745
7 | 791, 336, 745 |
113, 48, 745 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 113 x 48 x 745 = 28286160
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/28286160
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 87/791,12/336,184/745 is 1/28286160
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 791,336,745 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(791,336,745) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 7
GCF(791,336,745) x common factors =1 x 7 = 7
LCM(791,336,745) = ( 791 × 336 × 745 ) / 7
LCM(791,336,745) = 198003120 / 7
LCM(791,336,745) = 28286160
