Factors of 8705
List of positive integer factors of 8705 that divides 8705 without a remainder.
1,5,1741,8705
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8633,8705 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8633,8705 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 973,171
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 166383
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/166383
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8633/973,8705/171 is 1/166383
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 973,171 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(973,171) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(973,171) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(973,171) = ( 973 × 171 ) / 1
LCM(973,171) = 166383 / 1
LCM(973,171) = 166383
