The factors of 301 are 1, 7, 43, 301
The factors of 860 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 43, 86, 172, 215, 430, 860
The HCF of 301,860 is 43.
Lets's calculate GCF of 301,860
43 | 301, 860 |
7, 20 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 43 = 43
Now, list down the factors of 301
:1,7,43,301
Now, list down the factors of 860
:1,2,4,5,10,20,43,86,172,215,430,860
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 301,860 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 301,860 is 43.
Lets's calculate LCM of 13,733
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9529
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 43/9529
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 301/13,860/733 is 43/9529
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 13,733 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(13,733) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(13,733) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(13,733) = ( 13 × 733 ) / 1
LCM(13,733) = 9529 / 1
LCM(13,733) = 9529
