Factors of 2587
List of positive integer factors of 2587 that divides 2587 without a remainder.
1,13,199,2587
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1018,2587 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1018,2587 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 384,153
3 | 384, 153 |
128, 51 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 128 x 51 = 19584
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19584
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1018/384,2587/153 is 1/19584
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 384,153 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(384,153) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(384,153) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(384,153) = ( 384 × 153 ) / 3
LCM(384,153) = 58752 / 3
LCM(384,153) = 19584
