Factors of 302
List of positive integer factors of 302 that divides 302 without a remainder.
1,2,151,302
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 532,302 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 532,302 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 76,9522
2 | 76, 9522 |
38, 4761 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 38 x 4761 = 361836
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/361836
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 532/76,302/9522 is 2/361836
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 76,9522 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(76,9522) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(76,9522) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(76,9522) = ( 76 × 9522 ) / 2
LCM(76,9522) = 723672 / 2
LCM(76,9522) = 361836
