Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 50/934,850/247
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 50,850
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 50,850 is 50 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 934,247 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 934,247 is 230698 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 50,850
2 | 50, 850 |
5 | 25, 425 |
5 | 5, 85 |
1, 17 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 5 = 50
Factors of 50
List of positive integer factors of 50 that divides 50 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,25,50
Factors of 850
List of positive integer factors of 850 that divides 850 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,17,25,34,50,85,170,425,850
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 50,850 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 50,850 is 50.
Lets's calculate LCM of 934,247
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 230698
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 50/230698
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 50/934,850/247 is 50/230698
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 934,247 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(934,247) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(934,247) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(934,247) = ( 934 × 247 ) / 1
LCM(934,247) = 230698 / 1
LCM(934,247) = 230698
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
