The HCF of 3011,3040 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3011,3040
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 3011
:1,3011
Now, list down the factors of 3040
:1,2,4,5,8,10,16,19,20,32,38,40,76,80,95,152,160,190,304,380,608,760,1520,3040
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3011,3040 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3011,3040 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 131,290
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 37990
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/37990
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3011/131,3040/290 is 1/37990
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 131,290 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(131,290) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(131,290) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(131,290) = ( 131 × 290 ) / 1
LCM(131,290) = 37990 / 1
LCM(131,290) = 37990
