Factors of 1776
List of positive integer factors of 1776 that divides 1776 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,37,48,74,111,148,222,296,444,592,888,1776
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5001,1776 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5001,1776 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 30,139
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4170
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4170
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5001/30,1776/139 is 3/4170
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 30,139 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(30,139) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(30,139) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(30,139) = ( 30 × 139 ) / 1
LCM(30,139) = 4170 / 1
LCM(30,139) = 4170
