Factors of 1177
List of positive integer factors of 1177 that divides 1177 without a remainder.
1,11,107,1177
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7904,1177 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7904,1177 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 467,218
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 101806
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/101806
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7904/467,1177/218 is 1/101806
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 467,218 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(467,218) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(467,218) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(467,218) = ( 467 × 218 ) / 1
LCM(467,218) = 101806 / 1
LCM(467,218) = 101806
