The HCF of 956,2091 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 956,2091
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 956
:1,2,4,239,478,956
Now, list down the factors of 2091
:1,3,17,41,51,123,697,2091
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 956,2091 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 956,2091 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 856,659
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 564104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/564104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 956/856,2091/659 is 1/564104
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 856,659 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(856,659) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(856,659) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(856,659) = ( 856 × 659 ) / 1
LCM(856,659) = 564104 / 1
LCM(856,659) = 564104
