Lets's calculate LCM of 339,708,977
3 | 339, 708, 977 |
113, 236, 977 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 113 x 236 x 977 = 78163908
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/78163908
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 653/339,242/708,994/977 is 1/78163908
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 339,708,977 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(339,708,977) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(339,708,977) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(339,708,977) = ( 339 × 708 × 977 ) / 3
LCM(339,708,977) = 234491724 / 3
LCM(339,708,977) = 78163908
