The factors of 2420 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 11, 20, 22, 44, 55, 110, 121, 220, 242, 484, 605, 1210, 2420
The HCF of 880,2420 is 220.
Lets's calculate GCF of 880,2420
2 | 880, 2420 |
2 | 440, 1210 |
5 | 220, 605 |
11 | 44, 121 |
4, 11 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 11 = 220
Now, list down the factors of 880
:1,2,4,5,8,10,11,16,20,22,40,44,55,80,88,110,176,220,440,880
Now, list down the factors of 2420
:1,2,4,5,10,11,20,22,44,55,110,121,220,242,484,605,1210,2420
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 880,2420 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 880,2420 is 220.
Lets's calculate LCM of 101,101
101 | 101, 101 |
1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 101 x 1 x 1 = 101
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 220/101
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 880/101,2420/101 is 220/101
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 101,101 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(101,101) = 101
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(101,101) x common factors =101 x 1 = 101
LCM(101,101) = ( 101 × 101 ) / 101
LCM(101,101) = 10201 / 101
LCM(101,101) = 101
