Factors of 7482
List of positive integer factors of 7482 that divides 7482 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,29,43,58,86,87,129,174,258,1247,2494,3741,7482
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 887,7482 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 887,7482 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 309,280
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 86520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/86520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 887/309,7482/280 is 1/86520
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 309,280 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(309,280) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(309,280) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(309,280) = ( 309 × 280 ) / 1
LCM(309,280) = 86520 / 1
LCM(309,280) = 86520
