Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 46/679,437/106
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 46,437
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 46,437 is 23 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 679,106 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 679,106 is 71974 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 46,437
23 | 46, 437 |
2, 19 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 23 = 23
Factors of 46
List of positive integer factors of 46 that divides 46 without a remainder.
1,2,23,46
Factors of 437
List of positive integer factors of 437 that divides 437 without a remainder.
1,19,23,437
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 46,437 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 46,437 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 679,106
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 71974
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/71974
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 46/679,437/106 is 23/71974
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 679,106 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(679,106) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(679,106) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(679,106) = ( 679 × 106 ) / 1
LCM(679,106) = 71974 / 1
LCM(679,106) = 71974
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
