Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 65/132,286/649
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 65,286
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 65,286 is 13 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 132,649 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 132,649 is 7788 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 65,286
13 | 65, 286 |
5, 22 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 13 = 13
Factors of 65
List of positive integer factors of 65 that divides 65 without a remainder.
1,5,13,65
Factors of 286
List of positive integer factors of 286 that divides 286 without a remainder.
1,2,11,13,22,26,143,286
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 65,286 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 65,286 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 132,649
11 | 132, 649 |
12, 59 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 12 x 59 = 7788
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/7788
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 65/132,286/649 is 13/7788
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 132,649 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(132,649) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(132,649) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(132,649) = ( 132 × 649 ) / 11
LCM(132,649) = 85668 / 11
LCM(132,649) = 7788
