List of positive integer factors of 3280 that divides 3280 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,40,41,80,82,164,205,328,410,656,820,1640,3280
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4946,3280 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4946,3280 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,334
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 24382
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/24382
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4946/73,3280/334 is 2/24382
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 73,334 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,334) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,334) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,334) = ( 73 × 334 ) / 1
LCM(73,334) = 24382 / 1
LCM(73,334) = 24382
