Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 69/482,96/407
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 69,96
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 69,96 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 482,407 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 482,407 is 196174 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 69,96
3 | 69, 96 |
23, 32 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 69
List of positive integer factors of 69 that divides 69 without a remainder.
1,3,23,69
Factors of 96
List of positive integer factors of 96 that divides 96 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,32,48,96
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 69,96 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 69,96 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 482,407
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 196174
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/196174
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 69/482,96/407 is 3/196174
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 482,407 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(482,407) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(482,407) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(482,407) = ( 482 × 407 ) / 1
LCM(482,407) = 196174 / 1
LCM(482,407) = 196174
