Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 182/275,1997/456
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 182,1997
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 182,1997 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 275,456 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 275,456 is 125400 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 182,1997
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 182
List of positive integer factors of 182 that divides 182 without a remainder.
1,2,7,13,14,26,91,182
Factors of 1997
List of positive integer factors of 1997 that divides 1997 without a remainder.
1,1997
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 182,1997 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 182,1997 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 275,456
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 125400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/125400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 182/275,1997/456 is 1/125400
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 275,456 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(275,456) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(275,456) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(275,456) = ( 275 × 456 ) / 1
LCM(275,456) = 125400 / 1
LCM(275,456) = 125400
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
