So the greatest common factor 563,138,372 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 997,506,221
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 111490522
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/111490522
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 563/997,138/506,372/221 is 1/111490522
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 997,506,221 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(997,506,221) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(997,506,221) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(997,506,221) = ( 997 × 506 × 221 ) / 1
LCM(997,506,221) = 111490522 / 1
LCM(997,506,221) = 111490522
