Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1999/323,4036/156
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 1999,4036
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1999,4036 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 323,156 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 323,156 is 50388 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1999,4036
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 1999
List of positive integer factors of 1999 that divides 1999 without a remainder.
1,1999
Factors of 4036
List of positive integer factors of 4036 that divides 4036 without a remainder.
1,2,4,1009,2018,4036
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1999,4036 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1999,4036 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 323,156
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 50388
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/50388
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1999/323,4036/156 is 1/50388
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 323,156 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(323,156) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(323,156) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(323,156) = ( 323 × 156 ) / 1
LCM(323,156) = 50388 / 1
LCM(323,156) = 50388
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
