The factors of 715 are 1, 5, 11, 13, 55, 65, 143, 715
The factors of 170 are 1, 2, 5, 10, 17, 34, 85, 170
The HCF of 715,170 is 5.
Lets's calculate GCF of 715,170
5 | 715, 170 |
143, 34 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 715
:1,5,11,13,55,65,143,715
Now, list down the factors of 170
:1,2,5,10,17,34,85,170
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 715,170 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 715,170 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,921
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 12894
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/12894
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 715/14,170/921 is 5/12894
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 14,921 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,921) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(14,921) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(14,921) = ( 14 × 921 ) / 1
LCM(14,921) = 12894 / 1
LCM(14,921) = 12894
