Lets's calculate LCM of 800,850,864

2 800, 850, 864
2 400, 425, 432
2 200, 425, 216
2 100, 425, 108
2 50, 425, 54
5 25, 425, 27
5 5, 85, 27
1, 17, 27

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 5 x 1 x 17 x 27 = 367200

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/367200

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 42/800,852/850,253/864 is 1/367200

Least Common Multiple of 800,850,864 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 800,850,864 with GCF Formula

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 800,850,864 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(800,850,864) = 2

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 800

GCF(800,850,864) x common factors =2 x 800 = 1600

LCM(800,850,864) = ( 800 × 850 × 864 ) / 1600

LCM(800,850,864) = 587520000 / 1600

LCM(800,850,864) = 367200
