1,59
Factors of 234
List of positive integer factors of 234 that divides 234 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,13,18,26,39,78,117,234
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 54,59,234 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 54,59,234 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 168,843,841
3 | 168, 843, 841 |
56, 281, 841 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 56 x 281 x 841 = 39701928
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/39701928
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 54/168,59/843,234/841 is 1/39701928
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 168,843,841 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(168,843,841) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(168,843,841) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(168,843,841) = ( 168 × 843 × 841 ) / 3
LCM(168,843,841) = 119105784 / 3
LCM(168,843,841) = 39701928
