So the greatest common factor 529,422,972 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 168,513,395
3 | 168, 513, 395 |
56, 171, 395 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 56 x 171 x 395 = 11347560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11347560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 529/168,422/513,972/395 is 1/11347560
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 168,513,395 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(168,513,395) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(168,513,395) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(168,513,395) = ( 168 × 513 × 395 ) / 3
LCM(168,513,395) = 34042680 / 3
LCM(168,513,395) = 11347560
