List of positive integer factors of 3175 that divides 3175 without a remainder.
1,5,25,127,635,3175
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6743,3175 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6743,3175 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 391,597
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 233427
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/233427
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6743/391,3175/597 is 1/233427
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 391,597 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(391,597) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(391,597) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(391,597) = ( 391 × 597 ) / 1
LCM(391,597) = 233427 / 1
LCM(391,597) = 233427
