We found the factors 977,921,872 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 977,921,872 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,78,341
3 | 87, 78, 341 |
29, 26, 341 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 29 x 26 x 341 = 771342
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/771342
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 977/87,921/78,872/341 is 1/771342
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 87,78,341 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,78,341) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(87,78,341) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(87,78,341) = ( 87 × 78 × 341 ) / 3
LCM(87,78,341) = 2314026 / 3
LCM(87,78,341) = 771342
