1,1657
Factors of 2609
List of positive integer factors of 2609 that divides 2609 without a remainder.
1,2609
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1657,2609 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1657,2609 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 851,2515
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2140265
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2140265
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1657/851,2609/2515 is 1/2140265
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 851,2515 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(851,2515) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(851,2515) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(851,2515) = ( 851 × 2515 ) / 1
LCM(851,2515) = 2140265 / 1
LCM(851,2515) = 2140265
