Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 26/245,299/769
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 26,299
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 26,299 is 13 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 245,769 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 245,769 is 188405 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 26,299
13 | 26, 299 |
2, 23 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 13 = 13
Factors of 26
List of positive integer factors of 26 that divides 26 without a remainder.
1,2,13,26
Factors of 299
List of positive integer factors of 299 that divides 299 without a remainder.
1,13,23,299
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 26,299 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 26,299 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 245,769
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 188405
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/188405
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 26/245,299/769 is 13/188405
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 245,769 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(245,769) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(245,769) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(245,769) = ( 245 × 769 ) / 1
LCM(245,769) = 188405 / 1
LCM(245,769) = 188405
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
