Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 18/124,436/767
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 18,436
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 18,436 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 124,767 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 124,767 is 95108 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 18,436
2 | 18, 436 |
9, 218 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 18
List of positive integer factors of 18 that divides 18 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,18
Factors of 436
List of positive integer factors of 436 that divides 436 without a remainder.
1,2,4,109,218,436
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 18,436 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 18,436 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 124,767
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 95108
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/95108
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 18/124,436/767 is 2/95108
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 124,767 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(124,767) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(124,767) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(124,767) = ( 124 × 767 ) / 1
LCM(124,767) = 95108 / 1
LCM(124,767) = 95108
