The factors of 295 are 1, 5, 59, 295
The HCF of 205,295 is 5.
Lets's calculate GCF of 205,295
5 | 205, 295 |
41, 59 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 205
:1,5,41,205
Now, list down the factors of 295
:1,5,59,295
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 205,295 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 205,295 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 99,654
3 | 99, 654 |
33, 218 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 33 x 218 = 21582
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/21582
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 205/99,295/654 is 5/21582
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 99,654 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,654) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(99,654) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(99,654) = ( 99 × 654 ) / 3
LCM(99,654) = 64746 / 3
LCM(99,654) = 21582
