Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 117/146,622/300
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 117,622
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 117,622 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 146,300 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 146,300 is 21900 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 117,622
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 117
List of positive integer factors of 117 that divides 117 without a remainder.
1,3,9,13,39,117
Factors of 622
List of positive integer factors of 622 that divides 622 without a remainder.
1,2,311,622
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 117,622 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 117,622 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 146,300
2 | 146, 300 |
73, 150 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 73 x 150 = 21900
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21900
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 117/146,622/300 is 1/21900
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 146,300 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(146,300) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(146,300) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(146,300) = ( 146 × 300 ) / 2
LCM(146,300) = 43800 / 2
LCM(146,300) = 21900
