Lets's calculate LCM of 687,751,987
3 | 687, 751, 987 |
229, 751, 329 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 229 x 751 x 329 = 169743273
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/169743273
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 888/687,279/751,419/987 is 1/169743273
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 687,751,987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(687,751,987) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(687,751,987) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(687,751,987) = ( 687 × 751 × 987 ) / 3
LCM(687,751,987) = 509229819 / 3
LCM(687,751,987) = 169743273
