The factors of 917 are 1, 7, 131, 917
The HCF of 161,917 is 7.
Lets's calculate GCF of 161,917
7 | 161, 917 |
23, 131 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 = 7
Now, list down the factors of 161
:1,7,23,161
Now, list down the factors of 917
:1,7,131,917
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 161,917 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 161,917 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 523,804
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 420492
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/420492
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 161/523,917/804 is 7/420492
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 523,804 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(523,804) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(523,804) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(523,804) = ( 523 × 804 ) / 1
LCM(523,804) = 420492 / 1
LCM(523,804) = 420492
