Lets's calculate LCM of 697,217,795
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 120242955
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/120242955
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 276/697,531/217,432/795 is 3/120242955
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 697,217,795 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(697,217,795) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(697,217,795) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(697,217,795) = ( 697 × 217 × 795 ) / 1
LCM(697,217,795) = 120242955 / 1
LCM(697,217,795) = 120242955
