So the greatest common factor 864,522,861 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 281,675,446
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 84595050
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/84595050
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 864/281,522/675,861/446 is 3/84595050
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 281,675,446 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(281,675,446) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(281,675,446) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(281,675,446) = ( 281 × 675 × 446 ) / 1
LCM(281,675,446) = 84595050 / 1
LCM(281,675,446) = 84595050
