List of positive integer factors of 5134 that divides 5134 without a remainder.
1,2,17,34,151,302,2567,5134
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 524,5134 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 524,5134 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 331,104
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 34424
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/34424
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 524/331,5134/104 is 2/34424
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 331,104 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(331,104) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(331,104) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(331,104) = ( 331 × 104 ) / 1
LCM(331,104) = 34424 / 1
LCM(331,104) = 34424
