List of positive integer factors of 5034 that divides 5034 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,839,1678,2517,5034
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2152,5034 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2152,5034 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 34,460
2 | 34, 460 |
17, 230 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 17 x 230 = 7820
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/7820
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2152/34,5034/460 is 2/7820
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 34,460 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(34,460) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(34,460) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(34,460) = ( 34 × 460 ) / 2
LCM(34,460) = 15640 / 2
LCM(34,460) = 7820
