So the greatest common factor 60,878,684 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 509,639,560
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 182140560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/182140560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 60/509,878/639,684/560 is 2/182140560
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 509,639,560 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(509,639,560) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(509,639,560) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(509,639,560) = ( 509 × 639 × 560 ) / 1
LCM(509,639,560) = 182140560 / 1
LCM(509,639,560) = 182140560
