List of positive integer factors of 841 that divides 841 without a remainder.
1,29,841
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 400,739,841 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 400,739,841 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 401,155,188
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 11685140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11685140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 400/401,739/155,841/188 is 1/11685140
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 401,155,188 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(401,155,188) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(401,155,188) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(401,155,188) = ( 401 × 155 × 188 ) / 1
LCM(401,155,188) = 11685140 / 1
LCM(401,155,188) = 11685140
