Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 151/11,868/242
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 151,868
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 151,868 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 11,242 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 11,242 is 242 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 151,868
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 151
List of positive integer factors of 151 that divides 151 without a remainder.
1,151
Factors of 868
List of positive integer factors of 868 that divides 868 without a remainder.
1,2,4,7,14,28,31,62,124,217,434,868
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 151,868 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 151,868 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,242
11 | 11, 242 |
1, 22 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 1 x 22 = 242
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/242
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 151/11,868/242 is 1/242
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 11,242 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,242) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,242) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(11,242) = ( 11 × 242 ) / 11
LCM(11,242) = 2662 / 11
LCM(11,242) = 242
