Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 548/46,274/193
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 548,274
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 548,274 is 274 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 46,193 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 46,193 is 8878 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 548,274
2 | 548, 274 |
137 | 274, 137 |
2, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 137 = 274

List of positive integer factors of 548 that divides 548 without a remainder.
1,2,4,137,274,548
Factors of 274
List of positive integer factors of 274 that divides 274 without a remainder.
1,2,137,274
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 548,274 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 548,274 is 274.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,193
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8878
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 274/8878
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 548/46,274/193 is 274/8878
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 46,193 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,193) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,193) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(46,193) = ( 46 × 193 ) / 1
LCM(46,193) = 8878 / 1
LCM(46,193) = 8878
