The HCF of 760,260 is 20.
Lets's calculate GCF of 760,260
2 | 760, 260 |
2 | 380, 130 |
5 | 190, 65 |
38, 13 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 = 20
Now, list down the factors of 760
:1,2,4,5,8,10,19,20,38,40,76,95,152,190,380,760
Now, list down the factors of 260
:1,2,4,5,10,13,20,26,52,65,130,260
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 760,260 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 760,260 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 305,291
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 88755
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/88755
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 760/305,260/291 is 20/88755
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 305,291 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(305,291) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(305,291) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(305,291) = ( 305 × 291 ) / 1
LCM(305,291) = 88755 / 1
LCM(305,291) = 88755
