So the greatest common factor 392,327,240 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 493,251,139
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17200277
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17200277
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 392/493,327/251,240/139 is 1/17200277
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 493,251,139 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(493,251,139) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(493,251,139) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(493,251,139) = ( 493 × 251 × 139 ) / 1
LCM(493,251,139) = 17200277 / 1
LCM(493,251,139) = 17200277
