The HCF of 312,345 is 3.
Lets's calculate GCF of 312,345
3 | 312, 345 |
104, 115 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 312
:1,2,3,4,6,8,12,13,24,26,39,52,78,104,156,312
Now, list down the factors of 345
:1,3,5,15,23,69,115,345
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 312,345 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 312,345 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,505
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5555
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/5555
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 312/11,345/505 is 3/5555
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 11,505 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,505) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,505) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(11,505) = ( 11 × 505 ) / 1
LCM(11,505) = 5555 / 1
LCM(11,505) = 5555
