Factors of 958
List of positive integer factors of 958 that divides 958 without a remainder.
1,2,479,958
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 140,621,958 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 140,621,958 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,73,114
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 457710
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/457710
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 140/55,621/73,958/114 is 1/457710
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 55,73,114 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,73,114) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(55,73,114) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(55,73,114) = ( 55 × 73 × 114 ) / 1
LCM(55,73,114) = 457710 / 1
LCM(55,73,114) = 457710
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
