The greatest common factor of 291/61,111/748 = [GCF of 291,111]/[LCM of 61,748]= 3/45628
Therefore, the GCF of 291/61,111/748 is 3/45628.
To find the highest common factor of 291,111, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 291 are 1, 3, 97, 291
The factors of 111 are 1, 3, 37, 111
The HCF of 291,111 is 3.
Lets's calculate GCF of 291,111
3 | 291, 111 |
97, 37 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 291
:1,3,97,291
Now, list down the factors of 111
:1,3,37,111
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 291,111 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 291,111 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 61,748
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 45628
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/45628
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 291/61,111/748 is 3/45628
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 61,748 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(61,748) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(61,748) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(61,748) = ( 61 × 748 ) / 1
LCM(61,748) = 45628 / 1
LCM(61,748) = 45628
