The HCF of 75,16,467 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 75,16,467
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 75
:1,3,5,15,25,75
Now, list down the factors of 16
:1,2,4,8,16
Now, list down the factors of 467
:1,467
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 75,16,467 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 75,16,467 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 12,12,900
2 | 12, 12, 900 |
2 | 6, 6, 450 |
3 | 3, 3, 225 |
1, 1, 75 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 1 x 1 x 75 = 900
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/900
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 75/12,16/12,467/900 is 1/900
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 12,12,900 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(12,12,900) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12
GCF(12,12,900) x common factors =12 x 12 = 144
LCM(12,12,900) = ( 12 × 12 × 900 ) / 144
LCM(12,12,900) = 129600 / 144
LCM(12,12,900) = 900
