So the greatest common factor 59,988,688 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 509,398,423
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 85692186
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/85692186
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 59/509,988/398,688/423 is 1/85692186
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 509,398,423 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(509,398,423) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(509,398,423) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(509,398,423) = ( 509 × 398 × 423 ) / 1
LCM(509,398,423) = 85692186 / 1
LCM(509,398,423) = 85692186
