Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 348/10,397/248
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 348,397
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 348,397 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 10,248 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 10,248 is 1240 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 348,397
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 348
List of positive integer factors of 348 that divides 348 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,12,29,58,87,116,174,348
Factors of 397
List of positive integer factors of 397 that divides 397 without a remainder.
1,397
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 348,397 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 348,397 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 10,248
2 | 10, 248 |
5, 124 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 124 = 1240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 348/10,397/248 is 1/1240
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 10,248 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(10,248) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(10,248) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(10,248) = ( 10 × 248 ) / 2
LCM(10,248) = 2480 / 2
LCM(10,248) = 1240
