Factors of 3391
List of positive integer factors of 3391 that divides 3391 without a remainder.
1,3391
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1542,3391 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1542,3391 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 494,4185
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2067390
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2067390
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1542/494,3391/4185 is 1/2067390
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 494,4185 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(494,4185) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(494,4185) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(494,4185) = ( 494 × 4185 ) / 1
LCM(494,4185) = 2067390 / 1
LCM(494,4185) = 2067390
