Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 36/678,719/514
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 36,719
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 36,719 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 678,514 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 678,514 is 174246 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 36,719
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 36
List of positive integer factors of 36 that divides 36 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18,36
Factors of 719
List of positive integer factors of 719 that divides 719 without a remainder.
1,719
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 36,719 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 36,719 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 678,514
2 | 678, 514 |
339, 257 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 339 x 257 = 174246
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/174246
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/678,719/514 is 1/174246
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 678,514 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(678,514) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(678,514) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(678,514) = ( 678 × 514 ) / 2
LCM(678,514) = 348492 / 2
LCM(678,514) = 174246
