Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 81/331,114/127
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 81,114
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 81,114 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 331,127 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 331,127 is 42037 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 81,114
3 | 81, 114 |
27, 38 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 81
List of positive integer factors of 81 that divides 81 without a remainder.
1,3,9,27,81
Factors of 114
List of positive integer factors of 114 that divides 114 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,19,38,57,114
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 81,114 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 81,114 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 331,127
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 42037
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/42037
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 81/331,114/127 is 3/42037
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 331,127 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(331,127) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(331,127) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(331,127) = ( 331 × 127 ) / 1
LCM(331,127) = 42037 / 1
LCM(331,127) = 42037
