List of positive integer factors of 7130 that divides 7130 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,23,31,46,62,115,155,230,310,713,1426,3565,7130
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2012,7130 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2012,7130 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 790,780
2 | 790, 780 |
5 | 395, 390 |
79, 78 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 79 x 78 = 61620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/61620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2012/790,7130/780 is 2/61620
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 790,780 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(790,780) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(790,780) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(790,780) = ( 790 × 780 ) / 10
LCM(790,780) = 616200 / 10
LCM(790,780) = 61620
