List of positive integer factors of 169 that divides 169 without a remainder.
1,13,169
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 816,937,169 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 816,937,169 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,20,55
5 | 37, 20, 55 |
37, 4, 11 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 37 x 4 x 11 = 8140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 816/37,937/20,169/55 is 1/8140
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 37,20,55 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,20,55) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 5
GCF(37,20,55) x common factors =1 x 5 = 5
LCM(37,20,55) = ( 37 × 20 × 55 ) / 5
LCM(37,20,55) = 40700 / 5
LCM(37,20,55) = 8140
