So the greatest common factor 96,24,79 is 1.

Lets's calculate LCM of 72,36,473

2 72, 36, 473
2 36, 18, 473
3 9, 18, 473
3 3, 6, 473
1, 2, 473

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 1 x 2 x 473 = 34056

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/34056

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 96/72,24/36,79/473 is 1/34056

Least Common Multiple of 72,36,473 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 72,36,473 with GCF Formula

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 72,36,473 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(72,36,473) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 36

GCF(72,36,473) x common factors =1 x 36 = 36

LCM(72,36,473) = ( 72 × 36 × 473 ) / 36

LCM(72,36,473) = 1226016 / 36

LCM(72,36,473) = 34056
