The HCF of 41,54,742 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 41,54,742
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 41
:1,41
Now, list down the factors of 54
:1,2,3,6,9,18,27,54
Now, list down the factors of 742
:1,2,7,14,53,106,371,742
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 41,54,742 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 41,54,742 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,38,652
2 | 71, 38, 652 |
71, 19, 326 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 71 x 19 x 326 = 879548
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/879548
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 41/71,54/38,742/652 is 1/879548
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 71,38,652 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,38,652) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(71,38,652) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(71,38,652) = ( 71 × 38 × 652 ) / 2
LCM(71,38,652) = 1759096 / 2
LCM(71,38,652) = 879548
