List of positive integer factors of 2923 that divides 2923 without a remainder.
1,37,79,2923
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4282,2923 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4282,2923 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 552,980
2 | 552, 980 |
2 | 276, 490 |
138, 245 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 138 x 245 = 135240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/135240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4282/552,2923/980 is 1/135240
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 552,980 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(552,980) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(552,980) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(552,980) = ( 552 × 980 ) / 4
LCM(552,980) = 540960 / 4
LCM(552,980) = 135240
