1,2,439,878
Factors of 4891
List of positive integer factors of 4891 that divides 4891 without a remainder.
1,67,73,4891
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 878,4891 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 878,4891 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 346,200
2 | 346, 200 |
173, 100 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 173 x 100 = 34600
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/34600
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 878/346,4891/200 is 1/34600
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 346,200 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(346,200) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(346,200) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(346,200) = ( 346 × 200 ) / 2
LCM(346,200) = 69200 / 2
LCM(346,200) = 34600
