So the greatest common factor 85,885,920 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 295,442,457
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 59588230
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/59588230
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 85/295,885/442,920/457 is 5/59588230
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 295,442,457 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(295,442,457) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(295,442,457) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(295,442,457) = ( 295 × 442 × 457 ) / 1
LCM(295,442,457) = 59588230 / 1
LCM(295,442,457) = 59588230
