1,5,139,695
Factors of 1493
List of positive integer factors of 1493 that divides 1493 without a remainder.
1,1493
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 695,1493 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 695,1493 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 856,638
2 | 856, 638 |
428, 319 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 428 x 319 = 273064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/273064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 695/856,1493/638 is 1/273064
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 856,638 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(856,638) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(856,638) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(856,638) = ( 856 × 638 ) / 2
LCM(856,638) = 546128 / 2
LCM(856,638) = 273064
