The HCF of 263,526 is 263.
Lets's calculate GCF of 263,526
263 | 263, 526 |
1, 2 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 263 = 263
Now, list down the factors of 263
:1,263
Now, list down the factors of 526
:1,2,263,526
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 263,526 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 263,526 is 263.
Lets's calculate LCM of 10,288
2 | 10, 288 |
5, 144 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 144 = 1440
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 263/1440
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 263/10,526/288 is 263/1440
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 10,288 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(10,288) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(10,288) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(10,288) = ( 10 × 288 ) / 2
LCM(10,288) = 2880 / 2
LCM(10,288) = 1440
