Factors of 426
List of positive integer factors of 426 that divides 426 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,71,142,213,426
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 315,426 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 315,426 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 893,393
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 350949
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/350949
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 315/893,426/393 is 3/350949
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 893,393 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(893,393) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(893,393) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(893,393) = ( 893 × 393 ) / 1
LCM(893,393) = 350949 / 1
LCM(893,393) = 350949
