1,3,2719,8157
Factors of 2972
List of positive integer factors of 2972 that divides 2972 without a remainder.
1,2,4,743,1486,2972
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8157,2972 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8157,2972 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 369,467
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 172323
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/172323
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8157/369,2972/467 is 1/172323
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 369,467 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(369,467) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(369,467) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(369,467) = ( 369 × 467 ) / 1
LCM(369,467) = 172323 / 1
LCM(369,467) = 172323
