Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 460/96,353/162
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 460,353
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 460,353 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 96,162 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 96,162 is 2592 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 460,353
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 460
List of positive integer factors of 460 that divides 460 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,10,20,23,46,92,115,230,460
Factors of 353
List of positive integer factors of 353 that divides 353 without a remainder.
1,353
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 460,353 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 460,353 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 96,162
2 | 96, 162 |
3 | 48, 81 |
16, 27 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 16 x 27 = 2592
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2592
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 460/96,353/162 is 1/2592
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 96,162 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(96,162) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(96,162) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(96,162) = ( 96 × 162 ) / 6
LCM(96,162) = 15552 / 6
LCM(96,162) = 2592
