1,31,61,1891
Factors of 6679
List of positive integer factors of 6679 that divides 6679 without a remainder.
1,6679
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1891,6679 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1891,6679 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 878,3157
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2771846
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2771846
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1891/878,6679/3157 is 1/2771846
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 878,3157 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(878,3157) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(878,3157) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(878,3157) = ( 878 × 3157 ) / 1
LCM(878,3157) = 2771846 / 1
LCM(878,3157) = 2771846
