Factors of 1133
List of positive integer factors of 1133 that divides 1133 without a remainder.
1,11,103,1133
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5562,1133 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5562,1133 is 103.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,148
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10508
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 103/10508
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5562/71,1133/148 is 103/10508
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 71,148 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,148) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,148) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,148) = ( 71 × 148 ) / 1
LCM(71,148) = 10508 / 1
LCM(71,148) = 10508
