The factors of 8000 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 25, 32, 40, 50, 64, 80, 100, 125, 160, 200, 250, 320, 400, 500, 800, 1000, 1600, 2000, 4000, 8000
The HCF of 749,8000 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 749,8000
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 749
:1,7,107,749
Now, list down the factors of 8000
:1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,25,32,40,50,64,80,100,125,160,200,250,320,400,500,800,1000,1600,2000,4000,8000
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 749,8000 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 749,8000 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 140,166
2 | 140, 166 |
70, 83 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 70 x 83 = 11620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 749/140,8000/166 is 1/11620
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 140,166 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(140,166) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(140,166) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(140,166) = ( 140 × 166 ) / 2
LCM(140,166) = 23240 / 2
LCM(140,166) = 11620
