The factors of 437 are 1, 19, 23, 437
The HCF of 361,437 is 19.
Lets's calculate GCF of 361,437
19 | 361, 437 |
19, 23 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 19 = 19
Now, list down the factors of 361
:1,19,361
Now, list down the factors of 437
:1,19,23,437
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 361,437 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 361,437 is 19.
Lets's calculate LCM of 50,7251
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 362550
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/362550
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 361/50,437/7251 is 19/362550
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 50,7251 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(50,7251) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(50,7251) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(50,7251) = ( 50 × 7251 ) / 1
LCM(50,7251) = 362550 / 1
LCM(50,7251) = 362550
