List of positive integer factors of 369 that divides 369 without a remainder.
1,3,9,41,123,369
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9,572,369 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9,572,369 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 62,38,18
2 | 62, 38, 18 |
31, 19, 9 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 31 x 19 x 9 = 10602
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10602
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9/62,572/38,369/18 is 1/10602
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 62,38,18 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(62,38,18) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(62,38,18) x common factors =2 x 2 = 4
LCM(62,38,18) = ( 62 × 38 × 18 ) / 4
LCM(62,38,18) = 42408 / 4
LCM(62,38,18) = 10602
