1,2,5,10,23,46,115,230
Factors of 501
List of positive integer factors of 501 that divides 501 without a remainder.
1,3,167,501
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 700,230,501 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 700,230,501 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,63,887
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2235240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2235240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 700/40,230/63,501/887 is 1/2235240
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 40,63,887 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,63,887) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,63,887) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(40,63,887) = ( 40 × 63 × 887 ) / 1
LCM(40,63,887) = 2235240 / 1
LCM(40,63,887) = 2235240
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
