Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 154/52,2953/187
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 154,2953
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 154,2953 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 52,187 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 52,187 is 9724 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 154,2953
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 154
List of positive integer factors of 154 that divides 154 without a remainder.
1,2,7,11,14,22,77,154
Factors of 2953
List of positive integer factors of 2953 that divides 2953 without a remainder.
1,2953
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 154,2953 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 154,2953 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 52,187
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9724
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9724
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 154/52,2953/187 is 1/9724
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 52,187 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(52,187) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(52,187) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(52,187) = ( 52 × 187 ) / 1
LCM(52,187) = 9724 / 1
LCM(52,187) = 9724
