1,2,3,6,71,142,213,426
Factors of 525
List of positive integer factors of 525 that divides 525 without a remainder.
1,3,5,7,15,21,25,35,75,105,175,525
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 426,525 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 426,525 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 541,822
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 444702
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/444702
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 426/541,525/822 is 3/444702
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 541,822 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(541,822) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(541,822) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(541,822) = ( 541 × 822 ) / 1
LCM(541,822) = 444702 / 1
LCM(541,822) = 444702
