1,13,73,949
Factors of 7311
List of positive integer factors of 7311 that divides 7311 without a remainder.
1,3,2437,7311
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 949,7311 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 949,7311 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 131,5141
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 673471
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/673471
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 949/131,7311/5141 is 1/673471
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 131,5141 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(131,5141) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(131,5141) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(131,5141) = ( 131 × 5141 ) / 1
LCM(131,5141) = 673471 / 1
LCM(131,5141) = 673471
