List of positive integer factors of 9586 that divides 9586 without a remainder.
1,2,4793,9586
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4225,9586 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4225,9586 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 240,3787
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 908880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/908880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4225/240,9586/3787 is 1/908880
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 240,3787 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(240,3787) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(240,3787) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(240,3787) = ( 240 × 3787 ) / 1
LCM(240,3787) = 908880 / 1
LCM(240,3787) = 908880
