The factors of 345 are 1, 3, 5, 15, 23, 69, 115, 345
The HCF of 724,345 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 724,345
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 724
:1,2,4,181,362,724
Now, list down the factors of 345
:1,3,5,15,23,69,115,345
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 724,345 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 724,345 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,937
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 66527
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/66527
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 724/71,345/937 is 1/66527
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 71,937 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,937) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,937) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,937) = ( 71 × 937 ) / 1
LCM(71,937) = 66527 / 1
LCM(71,937) = 66527
