1,547
Factors of 986
List of positive integer factors of 986 that divides 986 without a remainder.
1,2,17,29,34,58,493,986
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 132,547,986 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 132,547,986 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 39,36,41
3 | 39, 36, 41 |
13, 12, 41 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 13 x 12 x 41 = 19188
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19188
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 132/39,547/36,986/41 is 1/19188
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 39,36,41 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(39,36,41) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(39,36,41) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(39,36,41) = ( 39 × 36 × 41 ) / 3
LCM(39,36,41) = 57564 / 3
LCM(39,36,41) = 19188
