Factors of 2534
List of positive integer factors of 2534 that divides 2534 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,181,362,1267,2534
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1690,2534 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1690,2534 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,240
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/17040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1690/71,2534/240 is 2/17040
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 71,240 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,240) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,240) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,240) = ( 71 × 240 ) / 1
LCM(71,240) = 17040 / 1
LCM(71,240) = 17040
