Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 544/32,145/640
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 544,145
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 544,145 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 32,640 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 32,640 is 640 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 544,145
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 544
List of positive integer factors of 544 that divides 544 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,17,32,34,68,136,272,544
Factors of 145
List of positive integer factors of 145 that divides 145 without a remainder.
1,5,29,145
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 544,145 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 544,145 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 32,640
2 | 32, 640 |
2 | 16, 320 |
2 | 8, 160 |
2 | 4, 80 |
2 | 2, 40 |
1, 20 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 1 x 20 = 640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 544/32,145/640 is 1/640
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 32,640 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(32,640) = 32
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(32,640) x common factors =32 x 1 = 32
LCM(32,640) = ( 32 × 640 ) / 32
LCM(32,640) = 20480 / 32
LCM(32,640) = 640
