The factors of 55 are 1, 5, 11, 55
The HCF of 33,55 is 11.
Lets's calculate GCF of 33,55
11 | 33, 55 |
3, 5 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 = 11
Now, list down the factors of 33
:1,3,11,33
Now, list down the factors of 55
:1,5,11,55
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 33,55 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 33,55 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 576,1171
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 674496
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/674496
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 33/576,55/1171 is 11/674496
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 576,1171 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(576,1171) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(576,1171) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(576,1171) = ( 576 × 1171 ) / 1
LCM(576,1171) = 674496 / 1
LCM(576,1171) = 674496
