Factors of 3142
List of positive integer factors of 3142 that divides 3142 without a remainder.
1,2,1571,3142
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6953,3142 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6953,3142 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 220,105
5 | 220, 105 |
44, 21 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 44 x 21 = 4620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6953/220,3142/105 is 1/4620
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 220,105 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(220,105) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(220,105) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(220,105) = ( 220 × 105 ) / 5
LCM(220,105) = 23100 / 5
LCM(220,105) = 4620
