Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 452/70,166/736
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 452,166
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 452,166 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 70,736 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 70,736 is 25760 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 452,166
2 | 452, 166 |
226, 83 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 452
List of positive integer factors of 452 that divides 452 without a remainder.
1,2,4,113,226,452
Factors of 166
List of positive integer factors of 166 that divides 166 without a remainder.
1,2,83,166
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 452,166 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 452,166 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 70,736
2 | 70, 736 |
35, 368 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 35 x 368 = 25760
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/25760
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 452/70,166/736 is 2/25760
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 70,736 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(70,736) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(70,736) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(70,736) = ( 70 × 736 ) / 2
LCM(70,736) = 51520 / 2
LCM(70,736) = 25760
