Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 2651/46,2761/946
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 2651,2761
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 2651,2761 is 11 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 46,946 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 46,946 is 21758 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 2651,2761
11 | 2651, 2761 |
241, 251 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 = 11
Factors of 2651
List of positive integer factors of 2651 that divides 2651 without a remainder.
1,11,241,2651
Factors of 2761
List of positive integer factors of 2761 that divides 2761 without a remainder.
1,11,251,2761
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2651,2761 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2651,2761 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,946
2 | 46, 946 |
23, 473 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 23 x 473 = 21758
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/21758
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2651/46,2761/946 is 11/21758
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 46,946 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,946) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,946) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(46,946) = ( 46 × 946 ) / 2
LCM(46,946) = 43516 / 2
LCM(46,946) = 21758
