Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 54/791,876/980
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 54,876
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 54,876 is 6 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 791,980 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 791,980 is 110740 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 54,876
2 | 54, 876 |
3 | 27, 438 |
9, 146 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 = 6
Factors of 54
List of positive integer factors of 54 that divides 54 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,18,27,54
Factors of 876
List of positive integer factors of 876 that divides 876 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,12,73,146,219,292,438,876
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 54,876 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 54,876 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 791,980
7 | 791, 980 |
113, 140 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 113 x 140 = 110740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/110740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 54/791,876/980 is 6/110740
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 791,980 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(791,980) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(791,980) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(791,980) = ( 791 × 980 ) / 7
LCM(791,980) = 775180 / 7
LCM(791,980) = 110740
