Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 76/741,437/864
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 76,437
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 76,437 is 19 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 741,864 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 741,864 is 213408 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 76,437
19 | 76, 437 |
4, 23 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 19 = 19
Factors of 76
List of positive integer factors of 76 that divides 76 without a remainder.
1,2,4,19,38,76
Factors of 437
List of positive integer factors of 437 that divides 437 without a remainder.
1,19,23,437
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 76,437 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 76,437 is 19.
Lets's calculate LCM of 741,864
3 | 741, 864 |
247, 288 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 247 x 288 = 213408
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/213408
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 76/741,437/864 is 19/213408
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 741,864 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(741,864) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(741,864) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(741,864) = ( 741 × 864 ) / 3
LCM(741,864) = 640224 / 3
LCM(741,864) = 213408
