Factors of 411
List of positive integer factors of 411 that divides 411 without a remainder.
1,3,137,411
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 429,411 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 429,411 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 594,669
3 | 594, 669 |
198, 223 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 198 x 223 = 132462
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/132462
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 429/594,411/669 is 3/132462
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 594,669 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(594,669) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(594,669) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(594,669) = ( 594 × 669 ) / 3
LCM(594,669) = 397386 / 3
LCM(594,669) = 132462
