Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 184/13,474/3457
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 184,474
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 184,474 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 13,3457 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 13,3457 is 44941 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 184,474
2 | 184, 474 |
92, 237 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 184
List of positive integer factors of 184 that divides 184 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,23,46,92,184
Factors of 474
List of positive integer factors of 474 that divides 474 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,79,158,237,474
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 184,474 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 184,474 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 13,3457
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 44941
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/44941
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 184/13,474/3457 is 2/44941
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 13,3457 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(13,3457) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(13,3457) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(13,3457) = ( 13 × 3457 ) / 1
LCM(13,3457) = 44941 / 1
LCM(13,3457) = 44941
