1,2,4,7,14,17,28,34,68,119,238,476
Factors of 423
List of positive integer factors of 423 that divides 423 without a remainder.
1,3,9,47,141,423
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 14,476,423 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 14,476,423 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,55,230
2 | 46, 55, 230 |
5 | 23, 55, 115 |
23 | 23, 11, 23 |
1, 11, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 23 x 1 x 11 x 1 = 2530
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2530
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 14/46,476/55,423/230 is 1/2530
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 46,55,230 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,55,230) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 230
GCF(46,55,230) x common factors =1 x 230 = 230
LCM(46,55,230) = ( 46 × 55 × 230 ) / 230
LCM(46,55,230) = 581900 / 230
LCM(46,55,230) = 2530
