The factors of 143 are 1, 11, 13, 143
The HCF of 871,143 is 13.
Lets's calculate GCF of 871,143
13 | 871, 143 |
67, 11 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 13 = 13
Now, list down the factors of 871
:1,13,67,871
Now, list down the factors of 143
:1,11,13,143
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 871,143 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 871,143 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,832
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 59072
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/59072
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 871/71,143/832 is 13/59072
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 71,832 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,832) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,832) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,832) = ( 71 × 832 ) / 1
LCM(71,832) = 59072 / 1
LCM(71,832) = 59072
