Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 44/702,159/152
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 44,159
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 44,159 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 702,152 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 702,152 is 53352 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 44,159
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 44
List of positive integer factors of 44 that divides 44 without a remainder.
1,2,4,11,22,44
Factors of 159
List of positive integer factors of 159 that divides 159 without a remainder.
1,3,53,159
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 44,159 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 44,159 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 702,152
2 | 702, 152 |
351, 76 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 351 x 76 = 53352
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/53352
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 44/702,159/152 is 1/53352
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 702,152 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(702,152) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(702,152) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(702,152) = ( 702 × 152 ) / 2
LCM(702,152) = 106704 / 2
LCM(702,152) = 53352
