The HCF of 722,206 is 2.
Lets's calculate GCF of 722,206
2 | 722, 206 |
361, 103 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 722
:1,2,19,38,361,722
Now, list down the factors of 206
:1,2,103,206
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 722,206 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 722,206 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 457,426
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 194682
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/194682
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 722/457,206/426 is 2/194682
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 457,426 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(457,426) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(457,426) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(457,426) = ( 457 × 426 ) / 1
LCM(457,426) = 194682 / 1
LCM(457,426) = 194682
