Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 383/21,538/2370
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 383,538
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 383,538 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 21,2370 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 21,2370 is 16590 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 383,538
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 383
List of positive integer factors of 383 that divides 383 without a remainder.
1,383
Factors of 538
List of positive integer factors of 538 that divides 538 without a remainder.
1,2,269,538
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 383,538 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 383,538 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 21,2370
3 | 21, 2370 |
7, 790 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 790 = 16590
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/16590
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 383/21,538/2370 is 1/16590
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 21,2370 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(21,2370) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(21,2370) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(21,2370) = ( 21 × 2370 ) / 3
LCM(21,2370) = 49770 / 3
LCM(21,2370) = 16590
