Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1214/84,1999/734
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 1214,1999
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1214,1999 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 84,734 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 84,734 is 30828 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1214,1999
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 1214
List of positive integer factors of 1214 that divides 1214 without a remainder.
1,2,607,1214
Factors of 1999
List of positive integer factors of 1999 that divides 1999 without a remainder.
1,1999
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1214,1999 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1214,1999 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 84,734
2 | 84, 734 |
42, 367 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 42 x 367 = 30828
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/30828
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1214/84,1999/734 is 1/30828
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 84,734 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(84,734) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(84,734) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(84,734) = ( 84 × 734 ) / 2
LCM(84,734) = 61656 / 2
LCM(84,734) = 30828
