List of positive integer factors of 872 that divides 872 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,109,218,436,872
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 954,872 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 954,872 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 777,596
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 463092
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/463092
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 954/777,872/596 is 2/463092
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 777,596 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(777,596) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(777,596) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(777,596) = ( 777 × 596 ) / 1
LCM(777,596) = 463092 / 1
LCM(777,596) = 463092
