List of positive integer factors of 8567 that divides 8567 without a remainder.
1,13,659,8567
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2416,8567 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2416,8567 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,842
2 | 72, 842 |
36, 421 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 36 x 421 = 30312
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/30312
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2416/72,8567/842 is 1/30312
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 72,842 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,842) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,842) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(72,842) = ( 72 × 842 ) / 2
LCM(72,842) = 60624 / 2
LCM(72,842) = 30312
