The factors of 555 are 1, 3, 5, 15, 37, 111, 185, 555
The factors of 505 are 1, 5, 101, 505
The HCF of 555,505 is 5.
Lets's calculate GCF of 555,505
5 | 555, 505 |
111, 101 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 555
:1,3,5,15,37,111,185,555
Now, list down the factors of 505
:1,5,101,505
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 555,505 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 555,505 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 50,417
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 20850
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/20850
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 555/50,505/417 is 5/20850
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 50,417 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(50,417) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(50,417) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(50,417) = ( 50 × 417 ) / 1
LCM(50,417) = 20850 / 1
LCM(50,417) = 20850
