Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 126/20,422/5511
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 126,422
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 126,422 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 20,5511 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 20,5511 is 110220 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 126,422
2 | 126, 422 |
63, 211 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 126
List of positive integer factors of 126 that divides 126 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,7,9,14,18,21,42,63,126
Factors of 422
List of positive integer factors of 422 that divides 422 without a remainder.
1,2,211,422
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 126,422 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 126,422 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,5511
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 110220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/110220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 126/20,422/5511 is 2/110220
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 20,5511 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,5511) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(20,5511) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(20,5511) = ( 20 × 5511 ) / 1
LCM(20,5511) = 110220 / 1
LCM(20,5511) = 110220
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
