1,5,179,895
Factors of 785
List of positive integer factors of 785 that divides 785 without a remainder.
1,5,157,785
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 895,785 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 895,785 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 2531,5801
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 14682331
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/14682331
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 895/2531,785/5801 is 5/14682331
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 2531,5801 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(2531,5801) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(2531,5801) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(2531,5801) = ( 2531 × 5801 ) / 1
LCM(2531,5801) = 14682331 / 1
LCM(2531,5801) = 14682331
