We found the factors 9,96,42,582 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9,96,42,582 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,28,619,135
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 86573340
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/86573340
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9/37,96/28,42/619,582/135 is 3/86573340
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 37,28,619,135 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,28,619,135) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,28,619,135) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,28,619,135) = ( 37 × 28 × 619 × 135 ) / 1
LCM(37,28,619,135) = 86573340 / 1
LCM(37,28,619,135) = 86573340
