Factors of 1834
List of positive integer factors of 1834 that divides 1834 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,131,262,917,1834
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 365,1834 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 365,1834 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 420,3486
2 | 420, 3486 |
3 | 210, 1743 |
7 | 70, 581 |
10, 83 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 7 x 10 x 83 = 34860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/34860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 365/420,1834/3486 is 1/34860
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 420,3486 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(420,3486) = 42
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(420,3486) x common factors =42 x 1 = 42
LCM(420,3486) = ( 420 × 3486 ) / 42
LCM(420,3486) = 1464120 / 42
LCM(420,3486) = 34860
