Factors of 586
List of positive integer factors of 586 that divides 586 without a remainder.
1,2,293,586
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 920,586 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 920,586 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 761,579
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 440619
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/440619
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 920/761,586/579 is 2/440619
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 761,579 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(761,579) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(761,579) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(761,579) = ( 761 × 579 ) / 1
LCM(761,579) = 440619 / 1
LCM(761,579) = 440619
