1,3,29,87
Factors of 443
List of positive integer factors of 443 that divides 443 without a remainder.
1,443
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 29,87,443 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 29,87,443 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 66,341,558
2 | 66, 341, 558 |
3 | 33, 341, 279 |
11 | 11, 341, 93 |
31 | 1, 31, 93 |
1, 1, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 11 x 31 x 1 x 1 x 3 = 6138
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6138
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 29/66,87/341,443/558 is 1/6138
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 66,341,558 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(66,341,558) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2046
GCF(66,341,558) x common factors =1 x 2046 = 2046
LCM(66,341,558) = ( 66 × 341 × 558 ) / 2046
LCM(66,341,558) = 12558348 / 2046
LCM(66,341,558) = 6138
