1,571
Factors of 608
List of positive integer factors of 608 that divides 608 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,19,32,38,76,152,304,608
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 32,571,608 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 32,571,608 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,35,980
2 | 24, 35, 980 |
2 | 12, 35, 490 |
5 | 6, 35, 245 |
7 | 6, 7, 49 |
6, 1, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 7 x 6 x 1 x 7 = 5880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 32/24,571/35,608/980 is 1/5880
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 24,35,980 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,35,980) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 140
GCF(24,35,980) x common factors =1 x 140 = 140
LCM(24,35,980) = ( 24 × 35 × 980 ) / 140
LCM(24,35,980) = 823200 / 140
LCM(24,35,980) = 5880
