1,5,443,2215
Factors of 1655
List of positive integer factors of 1655 that divides 1655 without a remainder.
1,5,331,1655
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2215,1655 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2215,1655 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 663,3442
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2282046
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/2282046
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2215/663,1655/3442 is 5/2282046
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 663,3442 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(663,3442) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(663,3442) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(663,3442) = ( 663 × 3442 ) / 1
LCM(663,3442) = 2282046 / 1
LCM(663,3442) = 2282046
