Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 10/605,640/115
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 10,640
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 10,640 is 10 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 605,115 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 605,115 is 13915 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 10,640
2 | 10, 640 |
5 | 5, 320 |
1, 64 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 5 = 10
Factors of 10
List of positive integer factors of 10 that divides 10 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10
Factors of 640
List of positive integer factors of 640 that divides 640 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,32,40,64,80,128,160,320,640
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 10,640 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 10,640 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 605,115
5 | 605, 115 |
121, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 121 x 23 = 13915
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/13915
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 10/605,640/115 is 10/13915
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 605,115 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(605,115) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(605,115) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(605,115) = ( 605 × 115 ) / 5
LCM(605,115) = 69575 / 5
LCM(605,115) = 13915
