The factors of 53 are 1, 53
The factors of 309 are 1, 3, 103, 309
The HCF of 11,53,309 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 11,53,309
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 11
:1,11
Now, list down the factors of 53
:1,53
Now, list down the factors of 309
:1,3,103,309
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 11,53,309 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 11,53,309 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 50,18,837
2 | 50, 18, 837 |
3 | 25, 9, 837 |
3 | 25, 3, 279 |
25, 1, 93 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 25 x 1 x 93 = 41850
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/41850
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 11/50,53/18,309/837 is 1/41850
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 50,18,837 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(50,18,837) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 18
GCF(50,18,837) x common factors =1 x 18 = 18
LCM(50,18,837) = ( 50 × 18 × 837 ) / 18
LCM(50,18,837) = 753300 / 18
LCM(50,18,837) = 41850
