1,499
Factors of 319
List of positive integer factors of 319 that divides 319 without a remainder.
1,11,29,319
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 499,319 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 499,319 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 3157,4962
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 15665034
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/15665034
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 499/3157,319/4962 is 1/15665034
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 3157,4962 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(3157,4962) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(3157,4962) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(3157,4962) = ( 3157 × 4962 ) / 1
LCM(3157,4962) = 15665034 / 1
LCM(3157,4962) = 15665034
