Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 763/15,322/520
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 763,322
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 763,322 is 7 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 15,520 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 15,520 is 1560 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 763,322
7 | 763, 322 |
109, 46 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 = 7
Factors of 763
List of positive integer factors of 763 that divides 763 without a remainder.
1,7,109,763
Factors of 322
List of positive integer factors of 322 that divides 322 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,23,46,161,322
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 763,322 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 763,322 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,520
5 | 15, 520 |
3, 104 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 3 x 104 = 1560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/1560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 763/15,322/520 is 7/1560
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 15,520 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,520) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(15,520) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(15,520) = ( 15 × 520 ) / 5
LCM(15,520) = 7800 / 5
LCM(15,520) = 1560
