Lets's calculate LCM of 988,457,855
19 | 988, 457, 855 |
52, 457, 45 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 19 x 52 x 457 x 45 = 20318220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20318220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 297/988,557/457,522/855 is 1/20318220
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 988,457,855 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(988,457,855) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 19
GCF(988,457,855) x common factors =1 x 19 = 19
LCM(988,457,855) = ( 988 × 457 × 855 ) / 19
LCM(988,457,855) = 386046180 / 19
LCM(988,457,855) = 20318220
