Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 366/750,142/833
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 366,142
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 366,142 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 750,833 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 750,833 is 624750 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 366,142
2 | 366, 142 |
183, 71 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 366
List of positive integer factors of 366 that divides 366 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,61,122,183,366
Factors of 142
List of positive integer factors of 142 that divides 142 without a remainder.
1,2,71,142
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 366,142 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 366,142 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 750,833
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 624750
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/624750
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 366/750,142/833 is 2/624750
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 750,833 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(750,833) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(750,833) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(750,833) = ( 750 × 833 ) / 1
LCM(750,833) = 624750 / 1
LCM(750,833) = 624750
