Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 150/45,670/1981
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 150,670
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 150,670 is 10 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 45,1981 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 45,1981 is 89145 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 150,670
2 | 150, 670 |
5 | 75, 335 |
15, 67 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 5 = 10
Factors of 150
List of positive integer factors of 150 that divides 150 without a remainder.
1,2,3,5,6,10,15,25,30,50,75,150
Factors of 670
List of positive integer factors of 670 that divides 670 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,67,134,335,670
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 150,670 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 150,670 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,1981
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 89145
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/89145
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 150/45,670/1981 is 10/89145
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 45,1981 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,1981) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(45,1981) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(45,1981) = ( 45 × 1981 ) / 1
LCM(45,1981) = 89145 / 1
LCM(45,1981) = 89145
