List of positive integer factors of 7258 that divides 7258 without a remainder.
1,2,19,38,191,382,3629,7258
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7992,7258 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7992,7258 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 968,764
2 | 968, 764 |
2 | 484, 382 |
242, 191 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 242 x 191 = 184888
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/184888
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7992/968,7258/764 is 2/184888
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 968,764 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(968,764) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(968,764) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(968,764) = ( 968 × 764 ) / 4
LCM(968,764) = 739552 / 4
LCM(968,764) = 184888
