List of positive integer factors of 344 that divides 344 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,43,86,172,344
Factors of 937
List of positive integer factors of 937 that divides 937 without a remainder.
1,937
Factors of 469
List of positive integer factors of 469 that divides 469 without a remainder.
1,7,67,469
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 344,937,469 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 344,937,469 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 18,54,24
2 | 18, 54, 24 |
3 | 9, 27, 12 |
3 | 3, 9, 4 |
1, 3, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 1 x 3 x 4 = 216
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/216
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 344/18,937/54,469/24 is 1/216
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 18,54,24 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(18,54,24) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 18
GCF(18,54,24) x common factors =6 x 18 = 108
LCM(18,54,24) = ( 18 × 54 × 24 ) / 108
LCM(18,54,24) = 23328 / 108
LCM(18,54,24) = 216
