List of positive integer factors of 1223 that divides 1223 without a remainder.
1,1223
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7176,1223 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7176,1223 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 296,518
2 | 296, 518 |
37 | 148, 259 |
4, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 37 x 4 x 7 = 2072
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2072
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7176/296,1223/518 is 1/2072
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 296,518 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(296,518) = 74
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(296,518) x common factors =74 x 1 = 74
LCM(296,518) = ( 296 × 518 ) / 74
LCM(296,518) = 153328 / 74
LCM(296,518) = 2072
