Factors of 1322
List of positive integer factors of 1322 that divides 1322 without a remainder.
1,2,661,1322
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5756,1322 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5756,1322 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 389,841
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 327149
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/327149
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5756/389,1322/841 is 2/327149
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 389,841 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(389,841) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(389,841) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(389,841) = ( 389 × 841 ) / 1
LCM(389,841) = 327149 / 1
LCM(389,841) = 327149
