Factors of 1975
List of positive integer factors of 1975 that divides 1975 without a remainder.
1,5,25,79,395,1975
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2656,1975 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2656,1975 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 98,774
2 | 98, 774 |
49, 387 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 49 x 387 = 37926
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/37926
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2656/98,1975/774 is 1/37926
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 98,774 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(98,774) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(98,774) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(98,774) = ( 98 × 774 ) / 2
LCM(98,774) = 75852 / 2
LCM(98,774) = 37926
