The factors of 831 are 1, 3, 277, 831
The factors of 502 are 1, 2, 251, 502
The HCF of 831,502 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 831,502
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 831
:1,3,277,831
Now, list down the factors of 502
:1,2,251,502
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 831,502 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 831,502 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 784,345
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 270480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/270480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 831/784,502/345 is 1/270480
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 784,345 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(784,345) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(784,345) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(784,345) = ( 784 × 345 ) / 1
LCM(784,345) = 270480 / 1
LCM(784,345) = 270480
