Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 75/454,63/990
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 75,63
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 75,63 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 454,990 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 454,990 is 224730 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 75,63
3 | 75, 63 |
25, 21 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 75
List of positive integer factors of 75 that divides 75 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15,25,75
Factors of 63
List of positive integer factors of 63 that divides 63 without a remainder.
1,3,7,9,21,63
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 75,63 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 75,63 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 454,990
2 | 454, 990 |
227, 495 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 227 x 495 = 224730
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/224730
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 75/454,63/990 is 3/224730
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 454,990 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(454,990) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(454,990) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(454,990) = ( 454 × 990 ) / 2
LCM(454,990) = 449460 / 2
LCM(454,990) = 224730
