Factors of 7431
List of positive integer factors of 7431 that divides 7431 without a remainder.
1,3,2477,7431
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4234,7431 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4234,7431 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 756,641
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 484596
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/484596
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4234/756,7431/641 is 1/484596
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 756,641 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(756,641) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(756,641) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(756,641) = ( 756 × 641 ) / 1
LCM(756,641) = 484596 / 1
LCM(756,641) = 484596
