Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 121/984,594/731
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 121,594
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 121,594 is 11 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 984,731 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 984,731 is 719304 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 121,594
11 | 121, 594 |
11, 54 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 = 11
Factors of 121
List of positive integer factors of 121 that divides 121 without a remainder.
1,11,121
Factors of 594
List of positive integer factors of 594 that divides 594 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,11,18,22,27,33,54,66,99,198,297,594
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 121,594 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 121,594 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 984,731
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 719304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/719304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 121/984,594/731 is 11/719304
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 984,731 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(984,731) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(984,731) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(984,731) = ( 984 × 731 ) / 1
LCM(984,731) = 719304 / 1
LCM(984,731) = 719304
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
