The HCF of 87,87,324 is 3.
Lets's calculate GCF of 87,87,324
3 | 87, 87, 324 |
29, 29, 108 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 87
:1,3,29,87
Now, list down the factors of 87
:1,3,29,87
Now, list down the factors of 324
:1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18,27,36,54,81,108,162,324
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 87,87,324 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 87,87,324 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 93,98,55
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 501270
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/501270
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 87/93,87/98,324/55 is 3/501270
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 93,98,55 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(93,98,55) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(93,98,55) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(93,98,55) = ( 93 × 98 × 55 ) / 1
LCM(93,98,55) = 501270 / 1
LCM(93,98,55) = 501270
