Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 794/52,938/3059
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 794,938
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 794,938 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 52,3059 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 52,3059 is 159068 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 794,938
2 | 794, 938 |
397, 469 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 794
List of positive integer factors of 794 that divides 794 without a remainder.
1,2,397,794
Factors of 938
List of positive integer factors of 938 that divides 938 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,67,134,469,938
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 794,938 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 794,938 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 52,3059
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 159068
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/159068
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 794/52,938/3059 is 2/159068
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 52,3059 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(52,3059) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(52,3059) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(52,3059) = ( 52 × 3059 ) / 1
LCM(52,3059) = 159068 / 1
LCM(52,3059) = 159068
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
