Factors of 842
List of positive integer factors of 842 that divides 842 without a remainder.
1,2,421,842
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 826,842 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 826,842 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,9168
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 430896
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/430896
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 826/47,842/9168 is 2/430896
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 47,9168 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,9168) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,9168) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,9168) = ( 47 × 9168 ) / 1
LCM(47,9168) = 430896 / 1
LCM(47,9168) = 430896
