List of positive integer factors of 3538 that divides 3538 without a remainder.
1,2,29,58,61,122,1769,3538
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 425,3538 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 425,3538 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 320,2357
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 754240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/754240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 425/320,3538/2357 is 1/754240
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 320,2357 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(320,2357) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(320,2357) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(320,2357) = ( 320 × 2357 ) / 1
LCM(320,2357) = 754240 / 1
LCM(320,2357) = 754240
