The factors of 873 are 1, 3, 9, 97, 291, 873
The HCF of 194,873 is 97.
Lets's calculate GCF of 194,873
97 | 194, 873 |
2, 9 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 97 = 97
Now, list down the factors of 194
:1,2,97,194
Now, list down the factors of 873
:1,3,9,97,291,873
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 194,873 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 194,873 is 97.
Lets's calculate LCM of 61,369
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 22509
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 97/22509
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 194/61,873/369 is 97/22509
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 61,369 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(61,369) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(61,369) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(61,369) = ( 61 × 369 ) / 1
LCM(61,369) = 22509 / 1
LCM(61,369) = 22509
