1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,48,73,146,219,292,438,584,876,1168,1752,3504
Factors of 7517
List of positive integer factors of 7517 that divides 7517 without a remainder.
1,7517
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3504,7517 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3504,7517 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 799,189
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 151011
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/151011
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3504/799,7517/189 is 1/151011
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 799,189 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(799,189) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(799,189) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(799,189) = ( 799 × 189 ) / 1
LCM(799,189) = 151011 / 1
LCM(799,189) = 151011
