Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 326/718,122/873
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 326,122
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 326,122 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 718,873 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 718,873 is 626814 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 326,122
2 | 326, 122 |
163, 61 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 326
List of positive integer factors of 326 that divides 326 without a remainder.
1,2,163,326
Factors of 122
List of positive integer factors of 122 that divides 122 without a remainder.
1,2,61,122
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 326,122 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 326,122 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 718,873
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 626814
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/626814
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 326/718,122/873 is 2/626814
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 718,873 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(718,873) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(718,873) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(718,873) = ( 718 × 873 ) / 1
LCM(718,873) = 626814 / 1
LCM(718,873) = 626814
