Factors of 1542
List of positive integer factors of 1542 that divides 1542 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,257,514,771,1542
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 665,1542 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 665,1542 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 743,7956
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5911308
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5911308
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 665/743,1542/7956 is 1/5911308
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 743,7956 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(743,7956) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(743,7956) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(743,7956) = ( 743 × 7956 ) / 1
LCM(743,7956) = 5911308 / 1
LCM(743,7956) = 5911308
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
