Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 519/19,144/7376
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 519,144
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 519,144 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 19,7376 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 19,7376 is 140144 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 519,144
3 | 519, 144 |
173, 48 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 519
List of positive integer factors of 519 that divides 519 without a remainder.
1,3,173,519
Factors of 144
List of positive integer factors of 144 that divides 144 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,16,18,24,36,48,72,144
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 519,144 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 519,144 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 19,7376
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 140144
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/140144
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 519/19,144/7376 is 3/140144
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 19,7376 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(19,7376) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(19,7376) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(19,7376) = ( 19 × 7376 ) / 1
LCM(19,7376) = 140144 / 1
LCM(19,7376) = 140144
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
