1,5,1019,5095
Factors of 8686
List of positive integer factors of 8686 that divides 8686 without a remainder.
1,2,43,86,101,202,4343,8686
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5095,8686 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5095,8686 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 242,2941
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 711722
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/711722
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5095/242,8686/2941 is 1/711722
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 242,2941 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,2941) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,2941) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(242,2941) = ( 242 × 2941 ) / 1
LCM(242,2941) = 711722 / 1
LCM(242,2941) = 711722
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
