List of positive integer factors of 747 that divides 747 without a remainder.
1,3,9,83,249,747
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 14,852,747 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 14,852,747 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 86,19,36
2 | 86, 19, 36 |
43, 19, 18 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 43 x 19 x 18 = 29412
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29412
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 14/86,852/19,747/36 is 1/29412
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 86,19,36 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(86,19,36) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(86,19,36) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(86,19,36) = ( 86 × 19 × 36 ) / 2
LCM(86,19,36) = 58824 / 2
LCM(86,19,36) = 29412
