1,3,9,29,87,261
Factors of 361
List of positive integer factors of 361 that divides 361 without a remainder.
1,19,361
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 619,261,361 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 619,261,361 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,18,558
2 | 17, 18, 558 |
3 | 17, 9, 279 |
3 | 17, 3, 93 |
17, 1, 31 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 17 x 1 x 31 = 9486
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9486
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 619/17,261/18,361/558 is 1/9486
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 17,18,558 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,18,558) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 18
GCF(17,18,558) x common factors =1 x 18 = 18
LCM(17,18,558) = ( 17 × 18 × 558 ) / 18
LCM(17,18,558) = 170748 / 18
LCM(17,18,558) = 9486
