The factors of 339 are 1, 3, 113, 339
The HCF of 303,339 is 3.
Lets's calculate GCF of 303,339
3 | 303, 339 |
101, 113 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 303
:1,3,101,303
Now, list down the factors of 339
:1,3,113,339
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 303,339 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 303,339 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 368,473
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 174064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/174064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 303/368,339/473 is 3/174064
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 368,473 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(368,473) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(368,473) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(368,473) = ( 368 × 473 ) / 1
LCM(368,473) = 174064 / 1
LCM(368,473) = 174064
