Lets's calculate LCM of 237,860,298
2 | 237, 860, 298 |
237, 430, 149 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 237 x 430 x 149 = 30369180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/30369180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 602/237,598/860,222/298 is 2/30369180
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 237,860,298 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(237,860,298) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(237,860,298) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(237,860,298) = ( 237 × 860 × 298 ) / 2
LCM(237,860,298) = 60738360 / 2
LCM(237,860,298) = 30369180
