Factors of 1013
List of positive integer factors of 1013 that divides 1013 without a remainder.
1,1013
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2988,1013 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2988,1013 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 365,1020
5 | 365, 1020 |
73, 204 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 73 x 204 = 74460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/74460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2988/365,1013/1020 is 1/74460
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 365,1020 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(365,1020) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(365,1020) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(365,1020) = ( 365 × 1020 ) / 5
LCM(365,1020) = 372300 / 5
LCM(365,1020) = 74460
