1,29,37,1073
Factors of 2809
List of positive integer factors of 2809 that divides 2809 without a remainder.
1,53,2809
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1073,2809 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1073,2809 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 236,426
2 | 236, 426 |
118, 213 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 118 x 213 = 50268
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/50268
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1073/236,2809/426 is 1/50268
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 236,426 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,426) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(236,426) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(236,426) = ( 236 × 426 ) / 2
LCM(236,426) = 100536 / 2
LCM(236,426) = 50268
