1,19,31,589
Factors of 1789
List of positive integer factors of 1789 that divides 1789 without a remainder.
1,1789
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 589,1789 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 589,1789 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 517,8374
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4329358
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4329358
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 589/517,1789/8374 is 1/4329358
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 517,8374 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(517,8374) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(517,8374) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(517,8374) = ( 517 × 8374 ) / 1
LCM(517,8374) = 4329358 / 1
LCM(517,8374) = 4329358
