1,7,49
Factors of 146
List of positive integer factors of 146 that divides 146 without a remainder.
1,2,73,146
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 87,49,146 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 87,49,146 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 892,750,990
2 | 892, 750, 990 |
3 | 446, 375, 495 |
5 | 446, 125, 165 |
446, 25, 33 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 5 x 446 x 25 x 33 = 11038500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11038500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 87/892,49/750,146/990 is 1/11038500
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 892,750,990 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(892,750,990) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 30
GCF(892,750,990) x common factors =2 x 30 = 60
LCM(892,750,990) = ( 892 × 750 × 990 ) / 60
LCM(892,750,990) = 662310000 / 60
LCM(892,750,990) = 11038500
