To find the highest common factor of 139,491, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 139 are 1, 139
The factors of 491 are 1, 491
The HCF of 139,491 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 139,491
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 139
:1,139
Now, list down the factors of 491
:1,491
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 139,491 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 139,491 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,700
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 16100
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/16100
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 139/23,491/700 is 1/16100
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 23,700 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,700) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,700) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,700) = ( 23 × 700 ) / 1
LCM(23,700) = 16100 / 1
LCM(23,700) = 16100
