The factors of 285 are 1, 3, 5, 15, 19, 57, 95, 285
The HCF of 415,285 is 5.
Lets's calculate GCF of 415,285
5 | 415, 285 |
83, 57 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 415
:1,5,83,415
Now, list down the factors of 285
:1,3,5,15,19,57,95,285
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 415,285 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 415,285 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 31,478
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 14818
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/14818
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 415/31,285/478 is 5/14818
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 31,478 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(31,478) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(31,478) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(31,478) = ( 31 × 478 ) / 1
LCM(31,478) = 14818 / 1
LCM(31,478) = 14818
