List of positive integer factors of 7574 that divides 7574 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,541,1082,3787,7574
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9155,7574 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9155,7574 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 50,238
2 | 50, 238 |
25, 119 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 25 x 119 = 5950
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5950
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9155/50,7574/238 is 1/5950
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 50,238 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(50,238) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(50,238) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(50,238) = ( 50 × 238 ) / 2
LCM(50,238) = 11900 / 2
LCM(50,238) = 5950
