Factors of 7795
List of positive integer factors of 7795 that divides 7795 without a remainder.
1,5,1559,7795
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 579,7795 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 579,7795 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 255,350
5 | 255, 350 |
51, 70 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 51 x 70 = 17850
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17850
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 579/255,7795/350 is 1/17850
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 255,350 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(255,350) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(255,350) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(255,350) = ( 255 × 350 ) / 5
LCM(255,350) = 89250 / 5
LCM(255,350) = 17850
