Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 24/992,119/203
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 24,119
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 24,119 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 992,203 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 992,203 is 201376 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 24,119
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 24
List of positive integer factors of 24 that divides 24 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24
Factors of 119
List of positive integer factors of 119 that divides 119 without a remainder.
1,7,17,119
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 24,119 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 24,119 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 992,203
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 201376
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/201376
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 24/992,119/203 is 1/201376
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 992,203 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(992,203) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(992,203) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(992,203) = ( 992 × 203 ) / 1
LCM(992,203) = 201376 / 1
LCM(992,203) = 201376
