Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 146/49,312/7013
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 146,312
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 146,312 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 49,7013 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 49,7013 is 343637 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 146,312
2 | 146, 312 |
73, 156 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 146
List of positive integer factors of 146 that divides 146 without a remainder.
1,2,73,146
Factors of 312
List of positive integer factors of 312 that divides 312 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,12,13,24,26,39,52,78,104,156,312
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 146,312 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 146,312 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,7013
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 343637
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/343637
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 146/49,312/7013 is 2/343637
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 49,7013 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,7013) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,7013) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,7013) = ( 49 × 7013 ) / 1
LCM(49,7013) = 343637 / 1
LCM(49,7013) = 343637
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
