Factors of 5189
List of positive integer factors of 5189 that divides 5189 without a remainder.
1,5189
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3720,5189 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3720,5189 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 788,585
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 460980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/460980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3720/788,5189/585 is 1/460980
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 788,585 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(788,585) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(788,585) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(788,585) = ( 788 × 585 ) / 1
LCM(788,585) = 460980 / 1
LCM(788,585) = 460980
