The factors of 233 are 1, 233
The factors of 218 are 1, 2, 109, 218
The HCF of 233,218 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 233,218
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 233
:1,233
Now, list down the factors of 218
:1,2,109,218
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 233,218 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 233,218 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 25,5997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 149925
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/149925
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 233/25,218/5997 is 1/149925
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 25,5997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(25,5997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(25,5997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(25,5997) = ( 25 × 5997 ) / 1
LCM(25,5997) = 149925 / 1
LCM(25,5997) = 149925
