The factors of 148 are 1, 2, 4, 37, 74, 148
The HCF of 444,148 is 148.
Lets's calculate GCF of 444,148
2 | 444, 148 |
2 | 222, 74 |
37 | 111, 37 |
3, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 37 = 148
Now, list down the factors of 444
:1,2,3,4,6,12,37,74,111,148,222,444
Now, list down the factors of 148
:1,2,4,37,74,148
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 444,148 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 444,148 is 148.
Lets's calculate LCM of 35,478
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 16730
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 148/16730
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 444/35,148/478 is 148/16730
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 35,478 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(35,478) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(35,478) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(35,478) = ( 35 × 478 ) / 1
LCM(35,478) = 16730 / 1
LCM(35,478) = 16730
