Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 361/164,4247/722
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 361,4247
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 361,4247 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 164,722 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 164,722 is 59204 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 361,4247
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 361
List of positive integer factors of 361 that divides 361 without a remainder.
1,19,361
Factors of 4247
List of positive integer factors of 4247 that divides 4247 without a remainder.
1,31,137,4247
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 361,4247 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 361,4247 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 164,722
2 | 164, 722 |
82, 361 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 82 x 361 = 59204
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/59204
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 361/164,4247/722 is 1/59204
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 164,722 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(164,722) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(164,722) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(164,722) = ( 164 × 722 ) / 2
LCM(164,722) = 118408 / 2
LCM(164,722) = 59204
