Lets's calculate LCM of 373,590,517
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 113776190
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/113776190
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 552/373,855/590,438/517 is 3/113776190
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 373,590,517 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(373,590,517) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(373,590,517) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(373,590,517) = ( 373 × 590 × 517 ) / 1
LCM(373,590,517) = 113776190 / 1
LCM(373,590,517) = 113776190
