List of positive integer factors of 1490 that divides 1490 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,149,298,745,1490
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5183,1490 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5183,1490 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 98,492
2 | 98, 492 |
49, 246 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 49 x 246 = 24108
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/24108
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5183/98,1490/492 is 1/24108
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 98,492 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(98,492) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(98,492) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(98,492) = ( 98 × 492 ) / 2
LCM(98,492) = 48216 / 2
LCM(98,492) = 24108
