Factors of 8209
List of positive integer factors of 8209 that divides 8209 without a remainder.
1,8209
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7837,8209 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7837,8209 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,146
2 | 28, 146 |
14, 73 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 14 x 73 = 2044
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2044
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7837/28,8209/146 is 1/2044
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 28,146 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,146) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(28,146) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(28,146) = ( 28 × 146 ) / 2
LCM(28,146) = 4088 / 2
LCM(28,146) = 2044
