Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 63/431,188/450
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 63,188
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 63,188 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 431,450 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 431,450 is 193950 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 63,188
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 63
List of positive integer factors of 63 that divides 63 without a remainder.
1,3,7,9,21,63
Factors of 188
List of positive integer factors of 188 that divides 188 without a remainder.
1,2,4,47,94,188
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 63,188 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 63,188 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 431,450
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 193950
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/193950
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 63/431,188/450 is 1/193950
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 431,450 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(431,450) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(431,450) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(431,450) = ( 431 × 450 ) / 1
LCM(431,450) = 193950 / 1
LCM(431,450) = 193950
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
