So the greatest common factor 76,40,117 is 1.

Lets's calculate LCM of 41,36,42

2 41, 36, 42
3 41, 18, 21
41, 6, 7

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 41 x 6 x 7 = 10332

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10332

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 76/41,40/36,117/42 is 1/10332

Least Common Multiple of 41,36,42 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 41,36,42 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 41,36,42 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(41,36,42) = 1

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

GCF(41,36,42) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6

LCM(41,36,42) = ( 41 × 36 × 42 ) / 6

LCM(41,36,42) = 61992 / 6

LCM(41,36,42) = 10332
