Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 458/283,1048/117
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 458,1048
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 458,1048 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 283,117 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 283,117 is 33111 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 458,1048
2 | 458, 1048 |
229, 524 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 458
List of positive integer factors of 458 that divides 458 without a remainder.
1,2,229,458
Factors of 1048
List of positive integer factors of 1048 that divides 1048 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,131,262,524,1048
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 458,1048 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 458,1048 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 283,117
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 33111
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/33111
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 458/283,1048/117 is 2/33111
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 283,117 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(283,117) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(283,117) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(283,117) = ( 283 × 117 ) / 1
LCM(283,117) = 33111 / 1
LCM(283,117) = 33111
