So the greatest common factor 962,352,891 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 421,899,896
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 339117184
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/339117184
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 962/421,352/899,891/896 is 1/339117184
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 421,899,896 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(421,899,896) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(421,899,896) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(421,899,896) = ( 421 × 899 × 896 ) / 1
LCM(421,899,896) = 339117184 / 1
LCM(421,899,896) = 339117184
