The HCF of 1293,1821 is 3.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1293,1821
3 | 1293, 1821 |
431, 607 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 1293
:1,3,431,1293
Now, list down the factors of 1821
:1,3,607,1821
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1293,1821 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1293,1821 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 167,871
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 145457
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/145457
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1293/167,1821/871 is 3/145457
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 167,871 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(167,871) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(167,871) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(167,871) = ( 167 × 871 ) / 1
LCM(167,871) = 145457 / 1
LCM(167,871) = 145457
