Factors of 842
List of positive integer factors of 842 that divides 842 without a remainder.
1,2,421,842
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 104,842 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 104,842 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 7177,5804
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 41655308
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/41655308
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 104/7177,842/5804 is 2/41655308
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 7177,5804 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(7177,5804) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(7177,5804) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(7177,5804) = ( 7177 × 5804 ) / 1
LCM(7177,5804) = 41655308 / 1
LCM(7177,5804) = 41655308
