List of positive integer factors of 6962 that divides 6962 without a remainder.
1,2,59,118,3481,6962
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5299,6962 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5299,6962 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 991,356
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 352796
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/352796
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5299/991,6962/356 is 1/352796
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 991,356 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(991,356) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(991,356) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(991,356) = ( 991 × 356 ) / 1
LCM(991,356) = 352796 / 1
LCM(991,356) = 352796
