Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 30/374,609/999
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 30,609
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 30,609 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 374,999 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 374,999 is 373626 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 30,609
3 | 30, 609 |
10, 203 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 30
List of positive integer factors of 30 that divides 30 without a remainder.
1,2,3,5,6,10,15,30
Factors of 609
List of positive integer factors of 609 that divides 609 without a remainder.
1,3,7,21,29,87,203,609
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 30,609 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 30,609 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 374,999
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 373626
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/373626
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 30/374,609/999 is 3/373626
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 374,999 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(374,999) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(374,999) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(374,999) = ( 374 × 999 ) / 1
LCM(374,999) = 373626 / 1
LCM(374,999) = 373626
