1,17,43,731
Factors of 5134
List of positive integer factors of 5134 that divides 5134 without a remainder.
1,2,17,34,151,302,2567,5134
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 731,5134 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 731,5134 is 17.
Lets's calculate LCM of 569,446
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 253774
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/253774
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 731/569,5134/446 is 17/253774
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 569,446 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(569,446) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(569,446) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(569,446) = ( 569 × 446 ) / 1
LCM(569,446) = 253774 / 1
LCM(569,446) = 253774
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
