Factors of 9857
List of positive integer factors of 9857 that divides 9857 without a remainder.
1,9857
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3185,9857 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3185,9857 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 70,725
5 | 70, 725 |
14, 145 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 14 x 145 = 10150
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10150
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3185/70,9857/725 is 1/10150
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 70,725 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(70,725) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(70,725) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(70,725) = ( 70 × 725 ) / 5
LCM(70,725) = 50750 / 5
LCM(70,725) = 10150
