Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 33/586,968/445
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 33,968
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 33,968 is 11 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 586,445 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 586,445 is 260770 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 33,968
11 | 33, 968 |
3, 88 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 = 11
Factors of 33
List of positive integer factors of 33 that divides 33 without a remainder.
1,3,11,33
Factors of 968
List of positive integer factors of 968 that divides 968 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,11,22,44,88,121,242,484,968
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 33,968 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 33,968 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 586,445
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 260770
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/260770
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 33/586,968/445 is 11/260770
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 586,445 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(586,445) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(586,445) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(586,445) = ( 586 × 445 ) / 1
LCM(586,445) = 260770 / 1
LCM(586,445) = 260770
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
