List of positive integer factors of 1598 that divides 1598 without a remainder.
1,2,17,34,47,94,799,1598
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9950,1598 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9950,1598 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,612
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 43452
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/43452
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9950/71,1598/612 is 2/43452
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 71,612 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,612) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,612) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,612) = ( 71 × 612 ) / 1
LCM(71,612) = 43452 / 1
LCM(71,612) = 43452
