Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 177/10,771/9142
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 177,771
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 177,771 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 10,9142 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 10,9142 is 45710 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 177,771
3 | 177, 771 |
59, 257 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 177
List of positive integer factors of 177 that divides 177 without a remainder.
1,3,59,177
Factors of 771
List of positive integer factors of 771 that divides 771 without a remainder.
1,3,257,771
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 177,771 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 177,771 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 10,9142
2 | 10, 9142 |
5, 4571 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 4571 = 45710
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/45710
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 177/10,771/9142 is 3/45710
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 10,9142 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(10,9142) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(10,9142) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(10,9142) = ( 10 × 9142 ) / 2
LCM(10,9142) = 91420 / 2
LCM(10,9142) = 45710
