List of positive integer factors of 1158 that divides 1158 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,193,386,579,1158
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5057,1158 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5057,1158 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 66,736
2 | 66, 736 |
33, 368 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 33 x 368 = 24288
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/24288
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5057/66,1158/736 is 1/24288
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 66,736 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(66,736) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(66,736) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(66,736) = ( 66 × 736 ) / 2
LCM(66,736) = 48576 / 2
LCM(66,736) = 24288
