Factors of 2918
List of positive integer factors of 2918 that divides 2918 without a remainder.
1,2,1459,2918
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 729,2918 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 729,2918 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 108,302
2 | 108, 302 |
54, 151 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 54 x 151 = 16308
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/16308
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 729/108,2918/302 is 1/16308
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 108,302 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(108,302) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(108,302) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(108,302) = ( 108 × 302 ) / 2
LCM(108,302) = 32616 / 2
LCM(108,302) = 16308
