List of positive integer factors of 8893 that divides 8893 without a remainder.
1,8893
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8749,8893 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8749,8893 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 272,904
2 | 272, 904 |
2 | 136, 452 |
2 | 68, 226 |
34, 113 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 34 x 113 = 30736
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/30736
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8749/272,8893/904 is 1/30736
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 272,904 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(272,904) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(272,904) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(272,904) = ( 272 × 904 ) / 8
LCM(272,904) = 245888 / 8
LCM(272,904) = 30736
