Factors of 3117
List of positive integer factors of 3117 that divides 3117 without a remainder.
1,3,1039,3117
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1295,3117 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1295,3117 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 88,524
2 | 88, 524 |
2 | 44, 262 |
22, 131 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 22 x 131 = 11528
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11528
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1295/88,3117/524 is 1/11528
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 88,524 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(88,524) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(88,524) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(88,524) = ( 88 × 524 ) / 4
LCM(88,524) = 46112 / 4
LCM(88,524) = 11528
