1,2,19,38
Factors of 5422
List of positive integer factors of 5422 that divides 5422 without a remainder.
1,2,2711,5422
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 38,5422 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 38,5422 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 245,6576
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1611120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1611120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 38/245,5422/6576 is 2/1611120
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 245,6576 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(245,6576) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(245,6576) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(245,6576) = ( 245 × 6576 ) / 1
LCM(245,6576) = 1611120 / 1
LCM(245,6576) = 1611120
