The factors of 314 are 1, 2, 157, 314
The factors of 562 are 1, 2, 281, 562
The HCF of 314,562 is 2.
Lets's calculate GCF of 314,562
2 | 314, 562 |
157, 281 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 314
:1,2,157,314
Now, list down the factors of 562
:1,2,281,562
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 314,562 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 314,562 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,881
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 36121
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/36121
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 314/41,562/881 is 2/36121
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 41,881 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,881) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,881) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,881) = ( 41 × 881 ) / 1
LCM(41,881) = 36121 / 1
LCM(41,881) = 36121
