Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 513/37,298/870
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 513,298
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 513,298 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 37,870 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 37,870 is 32190 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 513,298
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 513
List of positive integer factors of 513 that divides 513 without a remainder.
1,3,9,19,27,57,171,513
Factors of 298
List of positive integer factors of 298 that divides 298 without a remainder.
1,2,149,298
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 513,298 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 513,298 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,870
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 32190
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/32190
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 513/37,298/870 is 1/32190
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 37,870 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,870) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,870) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,870) = ( 37 × 870 ) / 1
LCM(37,870) = 32190 / 1
LCM(37,870) = 32190
