The factors of 1206 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 67, 134, 201, 402, 603, 1206
The factors of 1206 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 67, 134, 201, 402, 603, 1206
The HCF of 1206,1206 is 1206.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1206,1206
2 | 1206, 1206 |
3 | 603, 603 |
3 | 201, 201 |
67 | 67, 67 |
1, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 67 = 1206
Now, list down the factors of 1206
:1,2,3,6,9,18,67,134,201,402,603,1206
Now, list down the factors of 1206
:1,2,3,6,9,18,67,134,201,402,603,1206
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1206,1206 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1206,1206 is 1206.
Lets's calculate LCM of 831,146
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 121326
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1206/121326
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1206/831,1206/146 is 1206/121326
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 831,146 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(831,146) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(831,146) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(831,146) = ( 831 × 146 ) / 1
LCM(831,146) = 121326 / 1
LCM(831,146) = 121326
