Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 40/718,193/288
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 40,193
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 40,193 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 718,288 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 718,288 is 103392 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 40,193
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 40
List of positive integer factors of 40 that divides 40 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,8,10,20,40
Factors of 193
List of positive integer factors of 193 that divides 193 without a remainder.
1,193
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 40,193 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 40,193 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 718,288
2 | 718, 288 |
359, 144 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 359 x 144 = 103392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/103392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 40/718,193/288 is 1/103392
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 718,288 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(718,288) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(718,288) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(718,288) = ( 718 × 288 ) / 2
LCM(718,288) = 206784 / 2
LCM(718,288) = 103392
