Factors of 5234
List of positive integer factors of 5234 that divides 5234 without a remainder.
1,2,2617,5234
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 897,5234 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 897,5234 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 326,836
2 | 326, 836 |
163, 418 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 163 x 418 = 136268
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/136268
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 897/326,5234/836 is 1/136268
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 326,836 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(326,836) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(326,836) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(326,836) = ( 326 × 836 ) / 2
LCM(326,836) = 272536 / 2
LCM(326,836) = 136268
