1,2,5,10,25,43,50,86,215,430,1075,2150
Factors of 9206
List of positive integer factors of 9206 that divides 9206 without a remainder.
1,2,4603,9206
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2150,9206 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2150,9206 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,737
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 53064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/53064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2150/72,9206/737 is 2/53064
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 72,737 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,737) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,737) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(72,737) = ( 72 × 737 ) / 1
LCM(72,737) = 53064 / 1
LCM(72,737) = 53064
