Factors of 8761
List of positive integer factors of 8761 that divides 8761 without a remainder.
1,8761
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4140,8761 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4140,8761 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 270,642
2 | 270, 642 |
3 | 135, 321 |
45, 107 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 45 x 107 = 28890
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/28890
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4140/270,8761/642 is 1/28890
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 270,642 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(270,642) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(270,642) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(270,642) = ( 270 × 642 ) / 6
LCM(270,642) = 173340 / 6
LCM(270,642) = 28890
