Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 14/436,235/850
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 14,235
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 14,235 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 436,850 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 436,850 is 185300 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 14,235
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 14
List of positive integer factors of 14 that divides 14 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14
Factors of 235
List of positive integer factors of 235 that divides 235 without a remainder.
1,5,47,235
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 14,235 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 14,235 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 436,850
2 | 436, 850 |
218, 425 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 218 x 425 = 185300
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/185300
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 14/436,235/850 is 1/185300
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 436,850 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(436,850) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(436,850) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(436,850) = ( 436 × 850 ) / 2
LCM(436,850) = 370600 / 2
LCM(436,850) = 185300
