1,11,47,517
Factors of 838
List of positive integer factors of 838 that divides 838 without a remainder.
1,2,419,838
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 517,838 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 517,838 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 7979,8630
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 68858770
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/68858770
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 517/7979,838/8630 is 1/68858770
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 7979,8630 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(7979,8630) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(7979,8630) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(7979,8630) = ( 7979 × 8630 ) / 1
LCM(7979,8630) = 68858770 / 1
LCM(7979,8630) = 68858770
