The HCF of 664,332 is 332.
Lets's calculate GCF of 664,332
2 | 664, 332 |
2 | 332, 166 |
83 | 83, 166 |
1, 2 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 83 = 332
Now, list down the factors of 664
:1,2,4,8,83,166,332,664
Now, list down the factors of 332
:1,2,4,83,166,332
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 664,332 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 664,332 is 332.
Lets's calculate LCM of 44,674
2 | 44, 674 |
22, 337 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 22 x 337 = 14828
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 332/14828
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 664/44,332/674 is 332/14828
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 44,674 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(44,674) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(44,674) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(44,674) = ( 44 × 674 ) / 2
LCM(44,674) = 29656 / 2
LCM(44,674) = 14828
