List of positive integer factors of 3392 that divides 3392 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,32,53,64,106,212,424,848,1696,3392
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1059,3392 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1059,3392 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 861,502
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 432222
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/432222
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1059/861,3392/502 is 1/432222
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 861,502 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(861,502) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(861,502) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(861,502) = ( 861 × 502 ) / 1
LCM(861,502) = 432222 / 1
LCM(861,502) = 432222
