Lets's calculate LCM of 89,11,148

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 144892

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/144892

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 72/89,78/11,612/148 is 6/144892

Least Common Multiple of 89,11,148 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 89,11,148 with GCF Formula

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 89,11,148 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(89,11,148) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(89,11,148) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(89,11,148) = ( 89 × 11 × 148 ) / 1

LCM(89,11,148) = 144892 / 1

LCM(89,11,148) = 144892
