The HCF of 423,801 is 9.
Lets's calculate GCF of 423,801
3 | 423, 801 |
3 | 141, 267 |
47, 89 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 3 = 9
Now, list down the factors of 423
:1,3,9,47,141,423
Now, list down the factors of 801
:1,3,9,89,267,801
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 423,801 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 423,801 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 234,211
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 49374
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/49374
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 423/234,801/211 is 9/49374
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 234,211 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(234,211) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(234,211) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(234,211) = ( 234 × 211 ) / 1
LCM(234,211) = 49374 / 1
LCM(234,211) = 49374
