Factors of 9051
List of positive integer factors of 9051 that divides 9051 without a remainder.
1,3,7,21,431,1293,3017,9051
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3141,9051 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3141,9051 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 510,186
2 | 510, 186 |
3 | 255, 93 |
85, 31 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 85 x 31 = 15810
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/15810
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3141/510,9051/186 is 3/15810
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 510,186 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(510,186) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(510,186) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(510,186) = ( 510 × 186 ) / 6
LCM(510,186) = 94860 / 6
LCM(510,186) = 15810
