The HCF of 440,146 is 2.
Lets's calculate GCF of 440,146
2 | 440, 146 |
220, 73 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 440
:1,2,4,5,8,10,11,20,22,40,44,55,88,110,220,440
Now, list down the factors of 146
:1,2,73,146
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 440,146 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 440,146 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 62,359
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 22258
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/22258
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 440/62,146/359 is 2/22258
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 62,359 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(62,359) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(62,359) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(62,359) = ( 62 × 359 ) / 1
LCM(62,359) = 22258 / 1
LCM(62,359) = 22258
