Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 313/99,246/235
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 313,246
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 313,246 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 99,235 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 99,235 is 23265 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 313,246
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 313
List of positive integer factors of 313 that divides 313 without a remainder.
1,313
Factors of 246
List of positive integer factors of 246 that divides 246 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,41,82,123,246
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 313,246 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 313,246 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 99,235
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 23265
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/23265
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 313/99,246/235 is 1/23265
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 99,235 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,235) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(99,235) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(99,235) = ( 99 × 235 ) / 1
LCM(99,235) = 23265 / 1
LCM(99,235) = 23265
