To find the highest common factor of 236,767, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 236 are 1, 2, 4, 59, 118, 236
The factors of 767 are 1, 13, 59, 767
The HCF of 236,767 is 59.
Lets's calculate GCF of 236,767
59 | 236, 767 |
4, 13 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 59 = 59
Now, list down the factors of 236
:1,2,4,59,118,236
Now, list down the factors of 767
:1,13,59,767
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 236,767 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 236,767 is 59.
Lets's calculate LCM of 231,244
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 56364
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 59/56364
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 236/231,767/244 is 59/56364
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 231,244 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(231,244) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(231,244) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(231,244) = ( 231 × 244 ) / 1
LCM(231,244) = 56364 / 1
LCM(231,244) = 56364
