Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 731/206,377/865
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 731,377
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 731,377 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 206,865 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 206,865 is 178190 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 731,377
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 731
List of positive integer factors of 731 that divides 731 without a remainder.
1,17,43,731
Factors of 377
List of positive integer factors of 377 that divides 377 without a remainder.
1,13,29,377
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 731,377 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 731,377 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 206,865
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 178190
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/178190
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 731/206,377/865 is 1/178190
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 206,865 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(206,865) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(206,865) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(206,865) = ( 206 × 865 ) / 1
LCM(206,865) = 178190 / 1
LCM(206,865) = 178190
