1,3,9,41,123,369
Factors of 687
List of positive integer factors of 687 that divides 687 without a remainder.
1,3,229,687
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 369,687 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 369,687 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,8399
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 613127
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/613127
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 369/73,687/8399 is 3/613127
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 73,8399 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,8399) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,8399) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,8399) = ( 73 × 8399 ) / 1
LCM(73,8399) = 613127 / 1
LCM(73,8399) = 613127
