The factors of 93 are 1, 3, 31, 93
The factors of 89 are 1, 89
The factors of 261 are 1, 3, 9, 29, 87, 261
The HCF of 93,89,261 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 93,89,261
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 93
:1,3,31,93
Now, list down the factors of 89
:1,89
Now, list down the factors of 261
:1,3,9,29,87,261
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 93,89,261 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 93,89,261 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,21,94
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 33558
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/33558
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 93/17,89/21,261/94 is 1/33558
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 17,21,94 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,21,94) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,21,94) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,21,94) = ( 17 × 21 × 94 ) / 1
LCM(17,21,94) = 33558 / 1
LCM(17,21,94) = 33558
