Factors of 8727
List of positive integer factors of 8727 that divides 8727 without a remainder.
1,3,2909,8727
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6947,8727 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6947,8727 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 361,2182
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 787702
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/787702
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6947/361,8727/2182 is 1/787702
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 361,2182 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(361,2182) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(361,2182) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(361,2182) = ( 361 × 2182 ) / 1
LCM(361,2182) = 787702 / 1
LCM(361,2182) = 787702
