Factors of 291
List of positive integer factors of 291 that divides 291 without a remainder.
1,3,97,291
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 85,318,291 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 85,318,291 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,94,397
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1679310
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1679310
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 85/45,318/94,291/397 is 1/1679310
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 45,94,397 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,94,397) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(45,94,397) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(45,94,397) = ( 45 × 94 × 397 ) / 1
LCM(45,94,397) = 1679310 / 1
LCM(45,94,397) = 1679310
