1,241
Factors of 251
List of positive integer factors of 251 that divides 251 without a remainder.
1,251
Factors of 502
List of positive integer factors of 502 that divides 502 without a remainder.
1,2,251,502
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 241,251,502 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 241,251,502 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 60,77,696
2 | 60, 77, 696 |
2 | 30, 77, 348 |
3 | 15, 77, 174 |
5, 77, 58 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 77 x 58 = 267960
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/267960
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 241/60,251/77,502/696 is 1/267960
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 60,77,696 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(60,77,696) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12
GCF(60,77,696) x common factors =1 x 12 = 12
LCM(60,77,696) = ( 60 × 77 × 696 ) / 12
LCM(60,77,696) = 3215520 / 12
LCM(60,77,696) = 267960
