1,2,337,674
Factors of 5729
List of positive integer factors of 5729 that divides 5729 without a remainder.
1,17,337,5729
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 674,5729 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 674,5729 is 337.
Lets's calculate LCM of 479,738
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 353502
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 337/353502
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 674/479,5729/738 is 337/353502
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 479,738 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(479,738) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(479,738) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(479,738) = ( 479 × 738 ) / 1
LCM(479,738) = 353502 / 1
LCM(479,738) = 353502
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
