The factors of 341 are 1, 11, 31, 341
The factors of 142 are 1, 2, 71, 142
The HCF of 341,142 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 341,142
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 341
:1,11,31,341
Now, list down the factors of 142
:1,2,71,142
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 341,142 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 341,142 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 44,591
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 26004
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/26004
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 341/44,142/591 is 1/26004
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 44,591 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(44,591) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(44,591) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(44,591) = ( 44 × 591 ) / 1
LCM(44,591) = 26004 / 1
LCM(44,591) = 26004
