So the greatest common factor 78,48,903 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 897,683,440
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 269566440
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/269566440
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 78/897,48/683,903/440 is 3/269566440
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 897,683,440 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(897,683,440) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(897,683,440) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(897,683,440) = ( 897 × 683 × 440 ) / 1
LCM(897,683,440) = 269566440 / 1
LCM(897,683,440) = 269566440
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
