Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 625/50,371/358
Formula to find GCF of Fractions is
GCF = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators
As per the formula GCF of Fractions let’s split into two parts and find the GCF of Numerators and LCM of Denominators
In the given fractions GCF of Numerators means GCF of 625,371
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 625,371 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 50,358 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 50,358 is 8950 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 625,371
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 625
List of positive integer factors of 625 that divides 625 without a remainder.
1,5,25,125,625
Factors of 371
List of positive integer factors of 371 that divides 371 without a remainder.
1,7,53,371
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 625,371 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 625,371 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 50,358
2 | 50, 358 |
25, 179 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 25 x 179 = 8950
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8950
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 625/50,371/358 is 1/8950
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 50,358 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(50,358) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(50,358) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(50,358) = ( 50 × 358 ) / 2
LCM(50,358) = 17900 / 2
LCM(50,358) = 8950
