Factors of 1319
List of positive integer factors of 1319 that divides 1319 without a remainder.
1,1319
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5831,1319 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5831,1319 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 290,340
2 | 290, 340 |
5 | 145, 170 |
29, 34 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 29 x 34 = 9860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5831/290,1319/340 is 1/9860
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 290,340 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(290,340) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(290,340) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(290,340) = ( 290 × 340 ) / 10
LCM(290,340) = 98600 / 10
LCM(290,340) = 9860
