Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 451/690,242/449
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 451,242
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 451,242 is 11 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 690,449 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 690,449 is 309810 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 451,242
11 | 451, 242 |
41, 22 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 = 11
Factors of 451
List of positive integer factors of 451 that divides 451 without a remainder.
1,11,41,451
Factors of 242
List of positive integer factors of 242 that divides 242 without a remainder.
1,2,11,22,121,242
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 451,242 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 451,242 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 690,449
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 309810
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/309810
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 451/690,242/449 is 11/309810
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 690,449 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(690,449) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(690,449) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(690,449) = ( 690 × 449 ) / 1
LCM(690,449) = 309810 / 1
LCM(690,449) = 309810
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
