Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 346/538,830/615
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 346,830
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 346,830 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 538,615 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 538,615 is 330870 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 346,830
2 | 346, 830 |
173, 415 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 346
List of positive integer factors of 346 that divides 346 without a remainder.
1,2,173,346
Factors of 830
List of positive integer factors of 830 that divides 830 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,83,166,415,830
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 346,830 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 346,830 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 538,615
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 330870
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/330870
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 346/538,830/615 is 2/330870
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 538,615 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(538,615) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(538,615) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(538,615) = ( 538 × 615 ) / 1
LCM(538,615) = 330870 / 1
LCM(538,615) = 330870
