List of positive integer factors of 2759 that divides 2759 without a remainder.
1,31,89,2759
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2049,2759 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2049,2759 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 537,735
3 | 537, 735 |
179, 245 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 179 x 245 = 131565
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/131565
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2049/537,2759/735 is 1/131565
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 537,735 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(537,735) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(537,735) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(537,735) = ( 537 × 735 ) / 3
LCM(537,735) = 394695 / 3
LCM(537,735) = 131565
