Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 184/201,729/524
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 184,729
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 184,729 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 201,524 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 201,524 is 105324 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 184,729
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
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 729
List of positive integer factors of 729 that divides 729 without a remainder.
1,3,9,27,81,243,729
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 184,729 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 184,729 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 201,524
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 105324
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/105324
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 184/201,729/524 is 1/105324
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 201,524 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(201,524) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(201,524) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(201,524) = ( 201 × 524 ) / 1
LCM(201,524) = 105324 / 1
LCM(201,524) = 105324
