Lets's calculate LCM of 680,841,975
5 | 680, 841, 975 |
136, 841, 195 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 136 x 841 x 195 = 111516600
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/111516600
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 987/680,888/841,969/975 is 3/111516600
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 680,841,975 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(680,841,975) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 5
GCF(680,841,975) x common factors =1 x 5 = 5
LCM(680,841,975) = ( 680 × 841 × 975 ) / 5
LCM(680,841,975) = 557583000 / 5
LCM(680,841,975) = 111516600
