The factors of 333 are 1, 3, 9, 37, 111, 333
The HCF of 534,333 is 3.
Lets's calculate GCF of 534,333
3 | 534, 333 |
178, 111 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 534
:1,2,3,6,89,178,267,534
Now, list down the factors of 333
:1,3,9,37,111,333
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 534,333 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 534,333 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,643
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10931
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/10931
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 534/17,333/643 is 3/10931
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 17,643 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,643) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,643) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,643) = ( 17 × 643 ) / 1
LCM(17,643) = 10931 / 1
LCM(17,643) = 10931
