To find the highest common factor of 640,739, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 640 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 32, 40, 64, 80, 128, 160, 320, 640
The factors of 739 are 1, 739
The HCF of 640,739 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 640,739
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 640
:1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,32,40,64,80,128,160,320,640
Now, list down the factors of 739
:1,739
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 640,739 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 640,739 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 12,769
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9228
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9228
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 640/12,739/769 is 1/9228
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 12,769 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(12,769) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(12,769) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(12,769) = ( 12 × 769 ) / 1
LCM(12,769) = 9228 / 1
LCM(12,769) = 9228
