1,2,3,4,6,9,12,13,18,26,36,39,52,78,117,156,234,468
Factors of 172
List of positive integer factors of 172 that divides 172 without a remainder.
1,2,4,43,86,172
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 25,468,172 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 25,468,172 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 22,36,794
2 | 22, 36, 794 |
11, 18, 397 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 11 x 18 x 397 = 157212
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/157212
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 25/22,468/36,172/794 is 1/157212
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 22,36,794 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(22,36,794) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(22,36,794) x common factors =2 x 2 = 4
LCM(22,36,794) = ( 22 × 36 × 794 ) / 4
LCM(22,36,794) = 628848 / 4
LCM(22,36,794) = 157212
