The HCF of 817,171 is 19.
Lets's calculate GCF of 817,171
19 | 817, 171 |
43, 9 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 19 = 19
Now, list down the factors of 817
:1,19,43,817
Now, list down the factors of 171
:1,3,9,19,57,171
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 817,171 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 817,171 is 19.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,608
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 32224
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/32224
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 817/53,171/608 is 19/32224
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 53,608 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,608) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,608) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,608) = ( 53 × 608 ) / 1
LCM(53,608) = 32224 / 1
LCM(53,608) = 32224
