1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24
Factors of 95
List of positive integer factors of 95 that divides 95 without a remainder.
1,5,19,95
Factors of 994
List of positive integer factors of 994 that divides 994 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,71,142,497,994
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 24,95,994 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 24,95,994 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,53,686
2 | 74, 53, 686 |
37, 53, 343 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 37 x 53 x 343 = 1345246
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1345246
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 24/74,95/53,994/686 is 1/1345246
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 74,53,686 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,53,686) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(74,53,686) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(74,53,686) = ( 74 × 53 × 686 ) / 2
LCM(74,53,686) = 2690492 / 2
LCM(74,53,686) = 1345246
