1,2,23,46
Factors of 424
List of positive integer factors of 424 that divides 424 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,53,106,212,424
Factors of 617
List of positive integer factors of 617 that divides 617 without a remainder.
1,617
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 46,424,617 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 46,424,617 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 68,42,903
2 | 68, 42, 903 |
3 | 34, 21, 903 |
7 | 34, 7, 301 |
34, 1, 43 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 7 x 34 x 1 x 43 = 61404
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/61404
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 46/68,424/42,617/903 is 1/61404
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 68,42,903 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(68,42,903) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 42
GCF(68,42,903) x common factors =1 x 42 = 42
LCM(68,42,903) = ( 68 × 42 × 903 ) / 42
LCM(68,42,903) = 2578968 / 42
LCM(68,42,903) = 61404
