Lets's calculate LCM of 237,306,862
2 | 237, 306, 862 |
3 | 237, 153, 431 |
79, 51, 431 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 79 x 51 x 431 = 10418994
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10418994
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 99/237,309/306,386/862 is 1/10418994
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 237,306,862 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(237,306,862) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(237,306,862) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(237,306,862) = ( 237 × 306 × 862 ) / 6
LCM(237,306,862) = 62513964 / 6
LCM(237,306,862) = 10418994
