1,2,419,838
Factors of 239
List of positive integer factors of 239 that divides 239 without a remainder.
1,239
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 59,838,239 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 59,838,239 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,73,329
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1032731
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1032731
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 59/43,838/73,239/329 is 1/1032731
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 43,73,329 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,73,329) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,73,329) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,73,329) = ( 43 × 73 × 329 ) / 1
LCM(43,73,329) = 1032731 / 1
LCM(43,73,329) = 1032731
