List of positive integer factors of 157 that divides 157 without a remainder.
1,157
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 19,988,157 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 19,988,157 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,69,662
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1690086
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1690086
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 19/37,988/69,157/662 is 1/1690086
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 37,69,662 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,69,662) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,69,662) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,69,662) = ( 37 × 69 × 662 ) / 1
LCM(37,69,662) = 1690086 / 1
LCM(37,69,662) = 1690086
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
