1,31
Factors of 2735
List of positive integer factors of 2735 that divides 2735 without a remainder.
1,5,547,2735
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 31,2735 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 31,2735 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 362,4362
2 | 362, 4362 |
181, 2181 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 181 x 2181 = 789522
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/789522
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 31/362,2735/4362 is 1/789522
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 362,4362 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(362,4362) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(362,4362) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(362,4362) = ( 362 × 4362 ) / 2
LCM(362,4362) = 1579044 / 2
LCM(362,4362) = 789522
