1,2,4,13,26,52,101,202,404,1313,2626,5252
Factors of 2902
List of positive integer factors of 2902 that divides 2902 without a remainder.
1,2,1451,2902
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5252,2902 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5252,2902 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 61,319
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19459
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/19459
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5252/61,2902/319 is 2/19459
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 61,319 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(61,319) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(61,319) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(61,319) = ( 61 × 319 ) / 1
LCM(61,319) = 19459 / 1
LCM(61,319) = 19459
