Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 263/393,494/418
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 263,494
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 263,494 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 393,418 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 393,418 is 164274 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 263,494
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 263
List of positive integer factors of 263 that divides 263 without a remainder.
1,263
Factors of 494
List of positive integer factors of 494 that divides 494 without a remainder.
1,2,13,19,26,38,247,494
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 263,494 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 263,494 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 393,418
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 164274
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/164274
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 263/393,494/418 is 1/164274
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 393,418 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(393,418) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(393,418) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(393,418) = ( 393 × 418 ) / 1
LCM(393,418) = 164274 / 1
LCM(393,418) = 164274
