Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 183/29,708/2891
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 183,708
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 183,708 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 29,2891 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 29,2891 is 83839 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 183,708
3 | 183, 708 |
61, 236 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 183
List of positive integer factors of 183 that divides 183 without a remainder.
1,3,61,183
Factors of 708
List of positive integer factors of 708 that divides 708 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,12,59,118,177,236,354,708
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 183,708 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 183,708 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,2891
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 83839
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/83839
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 183/29,708/2891 is 3/83839
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 29,2891 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,2891) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(29,2891) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(29,2891) = ( 29 × 2891 ) / 1
LCM(29,2891) = 83839 / 1
LCM(29,2891) = 83839
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
