Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 814/73,401/229
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 814,401
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 814,401 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 73,229 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 73,229 is 16717 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 814,401
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 814
List of positive integer factors of 814 that divides 814 without a remainder.
1,2,11,22,37,74,407,814
Factors of 401
List of positive integer factors of 401 that divides 401 without a remainder.
1,401
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 814,401 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 814,401 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,229
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 16717
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/16717
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 814/73,401/229 is 1/16717
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 73,229 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,229) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,229) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,229) = ( 73 × 229 ) / 1
LCM(73,229) = 16717 / 1
LCM(73,229) = 16717
