Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 122/245,1173/955
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 122,1173
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 122,1173 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 245,955 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 245,955 is 46795 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 122,1173
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 122
List of positive integer factors of 122 that divides 122 without a remainder.
1,2,61,122
Factors of 1173
List of positive integer factors of 1173 that divides 1173 without a remainder.
1,3,17,23,51,69,391,1173
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 122,1173 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 122,1173 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 245,955
5 | 245, 955 |
49, 191 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 49 x 191 = 46795
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/46795
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 122/245,1173/955 is 1/46795
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 245,955 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(245,955) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(245,955) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(245,955) = ( 245 × 955 ) / 5
LCM(245,955) = 233975 / 5
LCM(245,955) = 46795
