Factors of 5241
List of positive integer factors of 5241 that divides 5241 without a remainder.
1,3,1747,5241
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3400,5241 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3400,5241 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 435,659
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 286665
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/286665
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3400/435,5241/659 is 1/286665
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 435,659 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(435,659) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(435,659) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(435,659) = ( 435 × 659 ) / 1
LCM(435,659) = 286665 / 1
LCM(435,659) = 286665
