Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 331/545,1357/234
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 331,1357
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 331,1357 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 545,234 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 545,234 is 127530 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 331,1357
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 331
List of positive integer factors of 331 that divides 331 without a remainder.
1,331
Factors of 1357
List of positive integer factors of 1357 that divides 1357 without a remainder.
1,23,59,1357
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 331,1357 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 331,1357 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 545,234
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 127530
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/127530
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 331/545,1357/234 is 1/127530
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 545,234 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(545,234) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(545,234) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(545,234) = ( 545 × 234 ) / 1
LCM(545,234) = 127530 / 1
LCM(545,234) = 127530
