Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 758/362,1730/879
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 758,1730
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 758,1730 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 362,879 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 362,879 is 318198 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 758,1730
2 | 758, 1730 |
379, 865 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 758
List of positive integer factors of 758 that divides 758 without a remainder.
1,2,379,758
Factors of 1730
List of positive integer factors of 1730 that divides 1730 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,173,346,865,1730
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 758,1730 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 758,1730 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 362,879
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 318198
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/318198
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 758/362,1730/879 is 2/318198
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 362,879 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(362,879) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(362,879) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(362,879) = ( 362 × 879 ) / 1
LCM(362,879) = 318198 / 1
LCM(362,879) = 318198
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
