The factors of 115 are 1, 5, 23, 115
The HCF of 943,115 is 23.
Lets's calculate GCF of 943,115
23 | 943, 115 |
41, 5 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 23 = 23
Now, list down the factors of 943
:1,23,41,943
Now, list down the factors of 115
:1,5,23,115
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 943,115 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 943,115 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,725
29 | 29, 725 |
1, 25 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 29 x 1 x 25 = 725
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/725
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 943/29,115/725 is 23/725
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 29,725 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,725) = 29
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(29,725) x common factors =29 x 1 = 29
LCM(29,725) = ( 29 × 725 ) / 29
LCM(29,725) = 21025 / 29
LCM(29,725) = 725
