The factors of 184 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 23, 46, 92, 184
The HCF of 104,184 is 8.
Lets's calculate GCF of 104,184
2 | 104, 184 |
2 | 52, 92 |
2 | 26, 46 |
13, 23 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 = 8
Now, list down the factors of 104
:1,2,4,8,13,26,52,104
Now, list down the factors of 184
:1,2,4,8,23,46,92,184
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 104,184 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 104,184 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,621
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 44091
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/44091
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 104/71,184/621 is 8/44091
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 71,621 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,621) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,621) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,621) = ( 71 × 621 ) / 1
LCM(71,621) = 44091 / 1
LCM(71,621) = 44091
