The HCF of 587,800 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 587,800
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 587
:1,587
Now, list down the factors of 800
:1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,25,32,40,50,80,100,160,200,400,800
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 587,800 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 587,800 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 152,321
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 48792
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/48792
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 587/152,800/321 is 1/48792
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 152,321 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(152,321) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(152,321) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(152,321) = ( 152 × 321 ) / 1
LCM(152,321) = 48792 / 1
LCM(152,321) = 48792
