The HCF of 345,246 is 3.
Lets's calculate GCF of 345,246
3 | 345, 246 |
115, 82 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 345
:1,3,5,15,23,69,115,345
Now, list down the factors of 246
:1,2,3,6,41,82,123,246
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 345,246 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 345,246 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 923,202
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 186446
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/186446
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 345/923,246/202 is 3/186446
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 923,202 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(923,202) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(923,202) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(923,202) = ( 923 × 202 ) / 1
LCM(923,202) = 186446 / 1
LCM(923,202) = 186446
