So the greatest common factor 87,16,783 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 852,397,107
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 36192108
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/36192108
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 87/852,16/397,783/107 is 1/36192108
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 852,397,107 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(852,397,107) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(852,397,107) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(852,397,107) = ( 852 × 397 × 107 ) / 1
LCM(852,397,107) = 36192108 / 1
LCM(852,397,107) = 36192108
