The HCF of 501,668 is 167.
Lets's calculate GCF of 501,668
167 | 501, 668 |
3, 4 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 167 = 167
Now, list down the factors of 501
:1,3,167,501
Now, list down the factors of 668
:1,2,4,167,334,668
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 501,668 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 501,668 is 167.
Lets's calculate LCM of 81,2035
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 164835
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 167/164835
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 501/81,668/2035 is 167/164835
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 81,2035 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(81,2035) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(81,2035) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(81,2035) = ( 81 × 2035 ) / 1
LCM(81,2035) = 164835 / 1
LCM(81,2035) = 164835
