Lets's calculate LCM of 956,473,838
2 | 956, 473, 838 |
478, 473, 419 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 478 x 473 x 419 = 189466772
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/189466772
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 56/956,860/473,592/838 is 4/189466772
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 956,473,838 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(956,473,838) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(956,473,838) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(956,473,838) = ( 956 × 473 × 838 ) / 2
LCM(956,473,838) = 378933544 / 2
LCM(956,473,838) = 189466772
