List of positive integer factors of 2502 that divides 2502 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,18,139,278,417,834,1251,2502
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 36,2502 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 36,2502 is 18.
Lets's calculate LCM of 906,6637
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6013122
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/6013122
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/906,2502/6637 is 18/6013122
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 906,6637 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(906,6637) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(906,6637) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(906,6637) = ( 906 × 6637 ) / 1
LCM(906,6637) = 6013122 / 1
LCM(906,6637) = 6013122
