Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 13/836,741/290
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 13,741
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 13,741 is 13 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 836,290 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 836,290 is 121220 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 13,741
13 | 13, 741 |
1, 57 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 13 = 13
Factors of 13
List of positive integer factors of 13 that divides 13 without a remainder.
1,13
Factors of 741
List of positive integer factors of 741 that divides 741 without a remainder.
1,3,13,19,39,57,247,741
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 13,741 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 13,741 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 836,290
2 | 836, 290 |
418, 145 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 418 x 145 = 121220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/121220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 13/836,741/290 is 13/121220
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 836,290 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(836,290) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(836,290) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(836,290) = ( 836 × 290 ) / 2
LCM(836,290) = 242440 / 2
LCM(836,290) = 121220
