The HCF of 915,1037 is 61.
Lets's calculate GCF of 915,1037
61 | 915, 1037 |
15, 17 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 61 = 61
Now, list down the factors of 915
:1,3,5,15,61,183,305,915
Now, list down the factors of 1037
:1,17,61,1037
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 915,1037 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 915,1037 is 61.
Lets's calculate LCM of 202,261
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 52722
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 61/52722
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 915/202,1037/261 is 61/52722
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 202,261 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(202,261) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(202,261) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(202,261) = ( 202 × 261 ) / 1
LCM(202,261) = 52722 / 1
LCM(202,261) = 52722
