So the greatest common factor 896,504,426 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,29,49
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 32683
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/32683
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 896/23,504/29,426/49 is 2/32683
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 23,29,49 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,29,49) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,29,49) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,29,49) = ( 23 × 29 × 49 ) / 1
LCM(23,29,49) = 32683 / 1
LCM(23,29,49) = 32683
