Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 7118/83,1849/231
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 7118,1849
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 7118,1849 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 83,231 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 83,231 is 19173 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 7118,1849
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 7118
List of positive integer factors of 7118 that divides 7118 without a remainder.
1,2,3559,7118
Factors of 1849
List of positive integer factors of 1849 that divides 1849 without a remainder.
1,43,1849
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7118,1849 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7118,1849 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 83,231
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19173
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19173
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7118/83,1849/231 is 1/19173
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 83,231 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(83,231) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(83,231) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(83,231) = ( 83 × 231 ) / 1
LCM(83,231) = 19173 / 1
LCM(83,231) = 19173
