Factors of 8331
List of positive integer factors of 8331 that divides 8331 without a remainder.
1,3,2777,8331
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7038,8331 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7038,8331 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 75,503
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 37725
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/37725
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7038/75,8331/503 is 3/37725
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 75,503 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(75,503) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(75,503) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(75,503) = ( 75 × 503 ) / 1
LCM(75,503) = 37725 / 1
LCM(75,503) = 37725
