To find the highest common factor of 373,746, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 373 are 1, 373
The factors of 746 are 1, 2, 373, 746
The HCF of 373,746 is 373.
Lets's calculate GCF of 373,746
373 | 373, 746 |
1, 2 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 373 = 373
Now, list down the factors of 373
:1,373
Now, list down the factors of 746
:1,2,373,746
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 373,746 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 373,746 is 373.
Lets's calculate LCM of 401,270
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 108270
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 373/108270
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 373/401,746/270 is 373/108270
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 401,270 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(401,270) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(401,270) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(401,270) = ( 401 × 270 ) / 1
LCM(401,270) = 108270 / 1
LCM(401,270) = 108270
