Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 449/653,3143/223
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 449,3143
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 449,3143 is 449 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 653,223 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 653,223 is 145619 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 449,3143
449 | 449, 3143 |
1, 7 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 449 = 449
Factors of 449
List of positive integer factors of 449 that divides 449 without a remainder.
1,449
Factors of 3143
List of positive integer factors of 3143 that divides 3143 without a remainder.
1,7,449,3143
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 449,3143 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 449,3143 is 449.
Lets's calculate LCM of 653,223
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 145619
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 449/145619
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 449/653,3143/223 is 449/145619
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 653,223 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(653,223) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(653,223) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(653,223) = ( 653 × 223 ) / 1
LCM(653,223) = 145619 / 1
LCM(653,223) = 145619
