List of positive integer factors of 1077 that divides 1077 without a remainder.
1,3,359,1077
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3234,1077 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3234,1077 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 686,617
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 423262
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/423262
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3234/686,1077/617 is 3/423262
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 686,617 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(686,617) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(686,617) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(686,617) = ( 686 × 617 ) / 1
LCM(686,617) = 423262 / 1
LCM(686,617) = 423262
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
