List of positive integer factors of 4457 that divides 4457 without a remainder.
1,4457
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1502,4457 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1502,4457 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 754,112
2 | 754, 112 |
377, 56 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 377 x 56 = 42224
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/42224
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1502/754,4457/112 is 1/42224
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 754,112 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(754,112) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(754,112) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(754,112) = ( 754 × 112 ) / 2
LCM(754,112) = 84448 / 2
LCM(754,112) = 42224
