The factors of 51 are 1, 3, 17, 51
The factors of 4017 are 1, 3, 13, 39, 103, 309, 1339, 4017
The HCF of 51,4017 is 3.
Lets's calculate GCF of 51,4017
3 | 51, 4017 |
17, 1339 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 51
:1,3,17,51
Now, list down the factors of 4017
:1,3,13,39,103,309,1339,4017
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 51,4017 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 51,4017 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 704,9965
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7015360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/7015360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 51/704,4017/9965 is 3/7015360
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 704,9965 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(704,9965) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(704,9965) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(704,9965) = ( 704 × 9965 ) / 1
LCM(704,9965) = 7015360 / 1
LCM(704,9965) = 7015360
