1,8837
Factors of 2078
List of positive integer factors of 2078 that divides 2078 without a remainder.
1,2,1039,2078
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8837,2078 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8837,2078 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 879,121
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 106359
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/106359
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8837/879,2078/121 is 1/106359
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 879,121 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(879,121) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(879,121) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(879,121) = ( 879 × 121 ) / 1
LCM(879,121) = 106359 / 1
LCM(879,121) = 106359
