List of positive integer factors of 7201 that divides 7201 without a remainder.
1,19,379,7201
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6283,7201 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6283,7201 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 184,372
2 | 184, 372 |
2 | 92, 186 |
46, 93 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 46 x 93 = 17112
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17112
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6283/184,7201/372 is 1/17112
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 184,372 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(184,372) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(184,372) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(184,372) = ( 184 × 372 ) / 4
LCM(184,372) = 68448 / 4
LCM(184,372) = 17112
