Therefore, the GCF of 921/72,831/313 is 3/22536.
To find the highest common factor of 921,831, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 921 are 1, 3, 307, 921
The factors of 831 are 1, 3, 277, 831
The HCF of 921,831 is 3.
Lets's calculate GCF of 921,831
3 | 921, 831 |
307, 277 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 921
:1,3,307,921
Now, list down the factors of 831
:1,3,277,831
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 921,831 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 921,831 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,313
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 22536
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/22536
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 921/72,831/313 is 3/22536
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 72,313 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,313) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,313) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(72,313) = ( 72 × 313 ) / 1
LCM(72,313) = 22536 / 1
LCM(72,313) = 22536
