Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 500/96,167/1211
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 500,167
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 500,167 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 96,1211 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 96,1211 is 116256 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 500,167
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 500
List of positive integer factors of 500 that divides 500 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,10,20,25,50,100,125,250,500
Factors of 167
List of positive integer factors of 167 that divides 167 without a remainder.
1,167
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 500,167 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 500,167 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 96,1211
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 116256
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/116256
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 500/96,167/1211 is 1/116256
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 96,1211 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(96,1211) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(96,1211) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(96,1211) = ( 96 × 1211 ) / 1
LCM(96,1211) = 116256 / 1
LCM(96,1211) = 116256
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
