So the greatest common factor 78,63,728 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 188,869,321
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 52442412
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/52442412
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 78/188,63/869,728/321 is 1/52442412
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 188,869,321 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(188,869,321) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(188,869,321) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(188,869,321) = ( 188 × 869 × 321 ) / 1
LCM(188,869,321) = 52442412 / 1
LCM(188,869,321) = 52442412
