List of positive integer factors of 377 that divides 377 without a remainder.
1,13,29,377
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 57,51,377 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 57,51,377 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,78,701
2 | 16, 78, 701 |
8, 39, 701 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 8 x 39 x 701 = 437424
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/437424
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 57/16,51/78,377/701 is 1/437424
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 16,78,701 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,78,701) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(16,78,701) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(16,78,701) = ( 16 × 78 × 701 ) / 2
LCM(16,78,701) = 874848 / 2
LCM(16,78,701) = 437424
