Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 367/47,942/715
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 367,942
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 367,942 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 47,715 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 47,715 is 33605 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 367,942
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 367
List of positive integer factors of 367 that divides 367 without a remainder.
1,367
Factors of 942
List of positive integer factors of 942 that divides 942 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,157,314,471,942
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 367,942 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 367,942 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,715
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 33605
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/33605
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 367/47,942/715 is 1/33605
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 47,715 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,715) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,715) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,715) = ( 47 × 715 ) / 1
LCM(47,715) = 33605 / 1
LCM(47,715) = 33605
