The factors of 537 are 1, 3, 179, 537
The HCF of 393,537 is 3.
Lets's calculate GCF of 393,537
3 | 393, 537 |
131, 179 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 393
:1,3,131,393
Now, list down the factors of 537
:1,3,179,537
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 393,537 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 393,537 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 851,439
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 373589
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/373589
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 393/851,537/439 is 3/373589
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 851,439 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(851,439) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(851,439) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(851,439) = ( 851 × 439 ) / 1
LCM(851,439) = 373589 / 1
LCM(851,439) = 373589
