The factors of 371 are 1, 7, 53, 371
The factors of 749 are 1, 7, 107, 749
The HCF of 371,749 is 7.
Lets's calculate GCF of 371,749
7 | 371, 749 |
53, 107 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 = 7
Now, list down the factors of 371
:1,7,53,371
Now, list down the factors of 749
:1,7,107,749
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 371,749 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 371,749 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 95,217
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 20615
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/20615
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 371/95,749/217 is 7/20615
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 95,217 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(95,217) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(95,217) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(95,217) = ( 95 × 217 ) / 1
LCM(95,217) = 20615 / 1
LCM(95,217) = 20615
