Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 209/26,202/404
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 209,202
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 209,202 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 26,404 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 26,404 is 5252 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 209,202
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 209
List of positive integer factors of 209 that divides 209 without a remainder.
1,11,19,209
Factors of 202
List of positive integer factors of 202 that divides 202 without a remainder.
1,2,101,202
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 209,202 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 209,202 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,404
2 | 26, 404 |
13, 202 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 202 = 5252
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5252
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 209/26,202/404 is 1/5252
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 26,404 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,404) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(26,404) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(26,404) = ( 26 × 404 ) / 2
LCM(26,404) = 10504 / 2
LCM(26,404) = 5252
