The HCF of 246,759 is 3.
Lets's calculate GCF of 246,759
3 | 246, 759 |
82, 253 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 246
:1,2,3,6,41,82,123,246
Now, list down the factors of 759
:1,3,11,23,33,69,253,759
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 246,759 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 246,759 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,895
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 65335
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/65335
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 246/73,759/895 is 3/65335
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 73,895 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,895) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,895) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,895) = ( 73 × 895 ) / 1
LCM(73,895) = 65335 / 1
LCM(73,895) = 65335
