To find the highest common factor of 241,723, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 241 are 1, 241
The factors of 723 are 1, 3, 241, 723
The HCF of 241,723 is 241.
Lets's calculate GCF of 241,723
241 | 241, 723 |
1, 3 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 241 = 241
Now, list down the factors of 241
:1,241
Now, list down the factors of 723
:1,3,241,723
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 241,723 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 241,723 is 241.
Lets's calculate LCM of 44,818
2 | 44, 818 |
22, 409 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 22 x 409 = 17996
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 241/17996
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 241/44,723/818 is 241/17996
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 44,818 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(44,818) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(44,818) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(44,818) = ( 44 × 818 ) / 2
LCM(44,818) = 35992 / 2
LCM(44,818) = 17996
