The factors of 458 are 1, 2, 229, 458
The factors of 851 are 1, 23, 37, 851
The HCF of 458,851 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 458,851
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 458
:1,2,229,458
Now, list down the factors of 851
:1,23,37,851
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 458,851 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 458,851 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,552
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 23736
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/23736
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 458/43,851/552 is 1/23736
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 43,552 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,552) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,552) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,552) = ( 43 × 552 ) / 1
LCM(43,552) = 23736 / 1
LCM(43,552) = 23736
