Therefore, the GCF of 107/53,749/236 is 107/12508.
To find the highest common factor of 107,749, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 107 are 1, 107
The factors of 749 are 1, 7, 107, 749
The HCF of 107,749 is 107.
Lets's calculate GCF of 107,749
107 | 107, 749 |
1, 7 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 107 = 107
Now, list down the factors of 107
:1,107
Now, list down the factors of 749
:1,7,107,749
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 107,749 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 107,749 is 107.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,236
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 12508
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 107/12508
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 107/53,749/236 is 107/12508
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 53,236 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,236) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,236) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,236) = ( 53 × 236 ) / 1
LCM(53,236) = 12508 / 1
LCM(53,236) = 12508
