List of positive integer factors of 159 that divides 159 without a remainder.
1,3,53,159
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 561,159 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 561,159 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 81,9675
3 | 81, 9675 |
3 | 27, 3225 |
9, 1075 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 9 x 1075 = 87075
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/87075
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 561/81,159/9675 is 3/87075
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 81,9675 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(81,9675) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(81,9675) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(81,9675) = ( 81 × 9675 ) / 9
LCM(81,9675) = 783675 / 9
LCM(81,9675) = 87075
