Factors of 9934
List of positive integer factors of 9934 that divides 9934 without a remainder.
1,2,4967,9934
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 420,9934 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 420,9934 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,881
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 36121
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/36121
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 420/41,9934/881 is 2/36121
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 41,881 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,881) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,881) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,881) = ( 41 × 881 ) / 1
LCM(41,881) = 36121 / 1
LCM(41,881) = 36121
