1,3,11,13,33,39,143,429
Factors of 959
List of positive integer factors of 959 that divides 959 without a remainder.
1,7,137,959
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 321,429,959 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 321,429,959 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 92,15,66
2 | 92, 15, 66 |
3 | 46, 15, 33 |
46, 5, 11 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 46 x 5 x 11 = 15180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/15180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 321/92,429/15,959/66 is 1/15180
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 92,15,66 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(92,15,66) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(92,15,66) x common factors =1 x 6 = 6
LCM(92,15,66) = ( 92 × 15 × 66 ) / 6
LCM(92,15,66) = 91080 / 6
LCM(92,15,66) = 15180
