Factors of 1942
List of positive integer factors of 1942 that divides 1942 without a remainder.
1,2,971,1942
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5239,1942 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5239,1942 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 304,330
2 | 304, 330 |
152, 165 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 152 x 165 = 50160
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/50160
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5239/304,1942/330 is 1/50160
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 304,330 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(304,330) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(304,330) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(304,330) = ( 304 × 330 ) / 2
LCM(304,330) = 100320 / 2
LCM(304,330) = 50160
