Therefore, the GCF of 100/51,889/397 is 1/20247.
To find the highest common factor of 100,889, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 100 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100
The factors of 889 are 1, 7, 127, 889
The HCF of 100,889 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 100,889
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 100
:1,2,4,5,10,20,25,50,100
Now, list down the factors of 889
:1,7,127,889
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 100,889 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 100,889 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,397
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 20247
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20247
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 100/51,889/397 is 1/20247
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 51,397 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,397) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(51,397) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(51,397) = ( 51 × 397 ) / 1
LCM(51,397) = 20247 / 1
LCM(51,397) = 20247
