Factors of 146
List of positive integer factors of 146 that divides 146 without a remainder.
1,2,73,146
Factors of 3274
List of positive integer factors of 3274 that divides 3274 without a remainder.
1,2,1637,3274
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 146,3274 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 146,3274 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 129,7453
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 961437
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/961437
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 146/129,3274/7453 is 2/961437
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 129,7453 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(129,7453) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(129,7453) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(129,7453) = ( 129 × 7453 ) / 1
LCM(129,7453) = 961437 / 1
LCM(129,7453) = 961437
