1,11
Factors of 800
List of positive integer factors of 800 that divides 800 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,25,32,40,50,80,100,160,200,400,800
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 72,11,800 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 72,11,800 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,68,669
3 | 45, 68, 669 |
15, 68, 223 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 15 x 68 x 223 = 682380
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/682380
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 72/45,11/68,800/669 is 1/682380
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 45,68,669 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,68,669) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(45,68,669) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(45,68,669) = ( 45 × 68 × 669 ) / 3
LCM(45,68,669) = 2047140 / 3
LCM(45,68,669) = 682380
