1,2,3,6,491,982,1473,2946
Factors of 3799
List of positive integer factors of 3799 that divides 3799 without a remainder.
1,29,131,3799
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2946,3799 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2946,3799 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 984,983
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 967272
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/967272
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2946/984,3799/983 is 1/967272
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 984,983 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(984,983) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(984,983) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(984,983) = ( 984 × 983 ) / 1
LCM(984,983) = 967272 / 1
LCM(984,983) = 967272
