List of positive integer factors of 5518 that divides 5518 without a remainder.
1,2,31,62,89,178,2759,5518
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 116,5518 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 116,5518 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 38,190
2 | 38, 190 |
19 | 19, 95 |
1, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 19 x 1 x 5 = 190
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/190
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 116/38,5518/190 is 2/190
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 38,190 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(38,190) = 38
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(38,190) x common factors =38 x 1 = 38
LCM(38,190) = ( 38 × 190 ) / 38
LCM(38,190) = 7220 / 38
LCM(38,190) = 190
