List of positive integer factors of 1394 that divides 1394 without a remainder.
1,2,17,34,41,82,697,1394
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8159,1394 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8159,1394 is 41.
Lets's calculate LCM of 727,797
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 579419
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 41/579419
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8159/727,1394/797 is 41/579419
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 727,797 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(727,797) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(727,797) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(727,797) = ( 727 × 797 ) / 1
LCM(727,797) = 579419 / 1
LCM(727,797) = 579419
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
