The factors of 166 are 1, 2, 83, 166
The HCF of 115,166 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 115,166
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 115
:1,5,23,115
Now, list down the factors of 166
:1,2,83,166
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 115,166 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 115,166 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 861,991
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 853251
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/853251
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 115/861,166/991 is 1/853251
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 861,991 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(861,991) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(861,991) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(861,991) = ( 861 × 991 ) / 1
LCM(861,991) = 853251 / 1
LCM(861,991) = 853251
