1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,32,40,64,80,128,160,320,640
Factors of 834
List of positive integer factors of 834 that divides 834 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,139,278,417,834
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 159,640,834 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 159,640,834 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 81,13,872
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 918216
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/918216
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 159/81,640/13,834/872 is 1/918216
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 81,13,872 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(81,13,872) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(81,13,872) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(81,13,872) = ( 81 × 13 × 872 ) / 1
LCM(81,13,872) = 918216 / 1
LCM(81,13,872) = 918216
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
