Lets's calculate LCM of 56,12,672

2 56, 12, 672
2 28, 6, 336
2 14, 3, 168
3 7, 3, 84
7 7, 1, 28
1, 1, 4

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 1 x 1 x 4 = 672

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/672

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 48/56,46/12,52/672 is 2/672

Least Common Multiple of 56,12,672 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 56,12,672 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 56,12,672 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(56,12,672) = 4

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 168

GCF(56,12,672) x common factors =4 x 168 = 672

LCM(56,12,672) = ( 56 × 12 × 672 ) / 672

LCM(56,12,672) = 451584 / 672

LCM(56,12,672) = 672
