List of positive integer factors of 1855 that divides 1855 without a remainder.
1,5,7,35,53,265,371,1855
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6938,1855 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6938,1855 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 228,265
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 60420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/60420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6938/228,1855/265 is 1/60420
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 228,265 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(228,265) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(228,265) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(228,265) = ( 228 × 265 ) / 1
LCM(228,265) = 60420 / 1
LCM(228,265) = 60420
