1,631
Factors of 8291
List of positive integer factors of 8291 that divides 8291 without a remainder.
1,8291
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 631,8291 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 631,8291 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 718,478
2 | 718, 478 |
359, 239 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 359 x 239 = 171602
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/171602
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 631/718,8291/478 is 1/171602
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 718,478 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(718,478) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(718,478) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(718,478) = ( 718 × 478 ) / 2
LCM(718,478) = 343204 / 2
LCM(718,478) = 171602
