List of positive integer factors of 4546 that divides 4546 without a remainder.
1,2,2273,4546
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3254,4546 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3254,4546 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 463,1117
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 517171
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/517171
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3254/463,4546/1117 is 2/517171
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 463,1117 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(463,1117) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(463,1117) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(463,1117) = ( 463 × 1117 ) / 1
LCM(463,1117) = 517171 / 1
LCM(463,1117) = 517171
