1,2,13,26,163,326,2119,4238
Factors of 3035
List of positive integer factors of 3035 that divides 3035 without a remainder.
1,5,607,3035
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4238,3035 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4238,3035 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 597,286
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 170742
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/170742
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4238/597,3035/286 is 1/170742
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 597,286 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(597,286) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(597,286) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(597,286) = ( 597 × 286 ) / 1
LCM(597,286) = 170742 / 1
LCM(597,286) = 170742
