Lets's calculate LCM of 601,978,796
2 | 601, 978, 796 |
601, 489, 398 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 601 x 489 x 398 = 233935644
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/233935644
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 681/601,636/978,291/796 is 3/233935644
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 601,978,796 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(601,978,796) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(601,978,796) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(601,978,796) = ( 601 × 978 × 796 ) / 2
LCM(601,978,796) = 467871288 / 2
LCM(601,978,796) = 233935644
