Factors of 9886
List of positive integer factors of 9886 that divides 9886 without a remainder.
1,2,4943,9886
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4136,9886 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4136,9886 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,397
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4367
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4367
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4136/11,9886/397 is 2/4367
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 11,397 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,397) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,397) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(11,397) = ( 11 × 397 ) / 1
LCM(11,397) = 4367 / 1
LCM(11,397) = 4367
