Factors of 5392
List of positive integer factors of 5392 that divides 5392 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,337,674,1348,2696,5392
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 152,5392 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 152,5392 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 726,870
2 | 726, 870 |
3 | 363, 435 |
121, 145 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 121 x 145 = 105270
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/105270
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 152/726,5392/870 is 8/105270
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 726,870 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(726,870) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(726,870) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(726,870) = ( 726 × 870 ) / 6
LCM(726,870) = 631620 / 6
LCM(726,870) = 105270
