Factors of 69
List of positive integer factors of 69 that divides 69 without a remainder.
1,3,23,69
Factors of 737
List of positive integer factors of 737 that divides 737 without a remainder.
1,11,67,737
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1,40,69,737 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1,40,69,737 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,16,209,679
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 197540112
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/197540112
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1/87,40/16,69/209,737/679 is 1/197540112
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 87,16,209,679 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,16,209,679) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(87,16,209,679) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(87,16,209,679) = ( 87 × 16 × 209 × 679 ) / 1
LCM(87,16,209,679) = 197540112 / 1
LCM(87,16,209,679) = 197540112
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
