So the greatest common factor 180,426,582 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,73,823
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2943871
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/2943871
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 180/49,426/73,582/823 is 6/2943871
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 49,73,823 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,73,823) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,73,823) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,73,823) = ( 49 × 73 × 823 ) / 1
LCM(49,73,823) = 2943871 / 1
LCM(49,73,823) = 2943871
