1,79
Factors of 213
List of positive integer factors of 213 that divides 213 without a remainder.
1,3,71,213
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 52,79,213 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 52,79,213 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 78,78,944
2 | 78, 78, 944 |
3 | 39, 39, 472 |
13 | 13, 13, 472 |
1, 1, 472 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 13 x 1 x 1 x 472 = 36816
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/36816
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 52/78,79/78,213/944 is 1/36816
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 78,78,944 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(78,78,944) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 78
GCF(78,78,944) x common factors =2 x 78 = 156
LCM(78,78,944) = ( 78 × 78 × 944 ) / 156
LCM(78,78,944) = 5743296 / 156
LCM(78,78,944) = 36816
