Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 376/289,454/965
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 376,454
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 376,454 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 289,965 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 289,965 is 278885 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 376,454
2 | 376, 454 |
188, 227 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 376
List of positive integer factors of 376 that divides 376 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,47,94,188,376
Factors of 454
List of positive integer factors of 454 that divides 454 without a remainder.
1,2,227,454
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 376,454 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 376,454 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 289,965
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 278885
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/278885
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 376/289,454/965 is 2/278885
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 289,965 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(289,965) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(289,965) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(289,965) = ( 289 × 965 ) / 1
LCM(289,965) = 278885 / 1
LCM(289,965) = 278885
