Factors of 942
List of positive integer factors of 942 that divides 942 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,157,314,471,942
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 734,942 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 734,942 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 34,8817
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 299778
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/299778
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 734/34,942/8817 is 2/299778
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 34,8817 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(34,8817) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(34,8817) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(34,8817) = ( 34 × 8817 ) / 1
LCM(34,8817) = 299778 / 1
LCM(34,8817) = 299778
