Lets's calculate LCM of 12,978,242

2 12, 978, 242
3 6, 489, 121
2, 163, 121

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 2 x 163 x 121 = 236676

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/236676

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 73/12,31/978,428/242 is 1/236676

Least Common Multiple of 12,978,242 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 12,978,242 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 12,978,242 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(12,978,242) = 2

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6

GCF(12,978,242) x common factors =2 x 6 = 12

LCM(12,978,242) = ( 12 × 978 × 242 ) / 12

LCM(12,978,242) = 2840112 / 12

LCM(12,978,242) = 236676
