List of positive integer factors of 5257 that divides 5257 without a remainder.
1,7,751,5257
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3337,5257 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3337,5257 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 824,343
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 282632
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/282632
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3337/824,5257/343 is 1/282632
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 824,343 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(824,343) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(824,343) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(824,343) = ( 824 × 343 ) / 1
LCM(824,343) = 282632 / 1
LCM(824,343) = 282632
