The HCF of 645,845 is 5.
Lets's calculate GCF of 645,845
5 | 645, 845 |
129, 169 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 645
:1,3,5,15,43,129,215,645
Now, list down the factors of 845
:1,5,13,65,169,845
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 645,845 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 645,845 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,354
2 | 40, 354 |
20, 177 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 20 x 177 = 7080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/7080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 645/40,845/354 is 5/7080
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 40,354 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,354) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,354) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(40,354) = ( 40 × 354 ) / 2
LCM(40,354) = 14160 / 2
LCM(40,354) = 7080
