Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 358/29,167/843
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 358,167
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 358,167 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 29,843 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 29,843 is 24447 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 358,167
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 358
List of positive integer factors of 358 that divides 358 without a remainder.
1,2,179,358
Factors of 167
List of positive integer factors of 167 that divides 167 without a remainder.
1,167
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 358,167 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 358,167 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,843
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 24447
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/24447
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 358/29,167/843 is 1/24447
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 29,843 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,843) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(29,843) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(29,843) = ( 29 × 843 ) / 1
LCM(29,843) = 24447 / 1
LCM(29,843) = 24447
