Lets's calculate LCM of 917,524,493
131 | 917, 524, 493 |
7, 4, 493 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 131 x 7 x 4 x 493 = 1808324
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1808324
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 87/917,47/524,827/493 is 1/1808324
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 917,524,493 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(917,524,493) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 131
GCF(917,524,493) x common factors =1 x 131 = 131
LCM(917,524,493) = ( 917 × 524 × 493 ) / 131
LCM(917,524,493) = 236890444 / 131
LCM(917,524,493) = 1808324
