1,5,25
Factors of 968
List of positive integer factors of 968 that divides 968 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,11,22,44,88,121,242,484,968
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8,74,25,968 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8,74,25,968 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 31,73,334,375
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 283440750
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/283440750
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8/31,74/73,25/334,968/375 is 1/283440750
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 31,73,334,375 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(31,73,334,375) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(31,73,334,375) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(31,73,334,375) = ( 31 × 73 × 334 × 375 ) / 1
LCM(31,73,334,375) = 283440750 / 1
LCM(31,73,334,375) = 283440750
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
