1,2,4,8,89,178,356,712
Factors of 235
List of positive integer factors of 235 that divides 235 without a remainder.
1,5,47,235
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 224,712,235 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 224,712,235 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,63,98
7 | 71, 63, 98 |
71, 9, 14 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 71 x 9 x 14 = 62622
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/62622
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 224/71,712/63,235/98 is 1/62622
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 71,63,98 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,63,98) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 7
GCF(71,63,98) x common factors =1 x 7 = 7
LCM(71,63,98) = ( 71 × 63 × 98 ) / 7
LCM(71,63,98) = 438354 / 7
LCM(71,63,98) = 62622
