Lets's calculate LCM of 699,699,677
3 | 699, 699, 677 |
233 | 233, 233, 677 |
1, 1, 677 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 233 x 1 x 1 x 677 = 473223
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/473223
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 244/699,140/699,742/677 is 2/473223
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 699,699,677 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(699,699,677) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 699
GCF(699,699,677) x common factors =1 x 699 = 699
LCM(699,699,677) = ( 699 × 699 × 677 ) / 699
LCM(699,699,677) = 330782877 / 699
LCM(699,699,677) = 473223
