Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 134/579,259/262
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 134,259
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 134,259 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 579,262 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 579,262 is 151698 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 134,259
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 134
List of positive integer factors of 134 that divides 134 without a remainder.
1,2,67,134
Factors of 259
List of positive integer factors of 259 that divides 259 without a remainder.
1,7,37,259
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 134,259 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 134,259 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 579,262
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 151698
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/151698
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 134/579,259/262 is 1/151698
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 579,262 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(579,262) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(579,262) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(579,262) = ( 579 × 262 ) / 1
LCM(579,262) = 151698 / 1
LCM(579,262) = 151698
