Lets's calculate LCM of 697,873,642
3 | 697, 873, 642 |
697, 291, 214 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 697 x 291 x 214 = 130214934
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/130214934
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 865/697,885/873,238/642 is 1/130214934
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 697,873,642 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(697,873,642) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(697,873,642) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(697,873,642) = ( 697 × 873 × 642 ) / 3
LCM(697,873,642) = 390644802 / 3
LCM(697,873,642) = 130214934
