Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 141/5837,678/1041
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 141,678
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 141,678 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 5837,1041 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 5837,1041 is 6076317 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 141,678
3 | 141, 678 |
47, 226 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 141
List of positive integer factors of 141 that divides 141 without a remainder.
1,3,47,141
Factors of 678
List of positive integer factors of 678 that divides 678 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,113,226,339,678
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 141,678 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 141,678 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 5837,1041
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6076317
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/6076317
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 141/5837,678/1041 is 3/6076317
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 5837,1041 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(5837,1041) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(5837,1041) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(5837,1041) = ( 5837 × 1041 ) / 1
LCM(5837,1041) = 6076317 / 1
LCM(5837,1041) = 6076317
