Factors of 6991
List of positive integer factors of 6991 that divides 6991 without a remainder.
1,6991
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2714,6991 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2714,6991 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 701,279
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 195579
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/195579
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2714/701,6991/279 is 1/195579
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 701,279 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(701,279) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(701,279) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(701,279) = ( 701 × 279 ) / 1
LCM(701,279) = 195579 / 1
LCM(701,279) = 195579
