Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 82/626,157/300
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 82,157
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 82,157 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 626,300 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 626,300 is 93900 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 82,157
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 82
List of positive integer factors of 82 that divides 82 without a remainder.
1,2,41,82
Factors of 157
List of positive integer factors of 157 that divides 157 without a remainder.
1,157
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 82,157 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 82,157 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 626,300
2 | 626, 300 |
313, 150 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 313 x 150 = 93900
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/93900
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 82/626,157/300 is 1/93900
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 626,300 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(626,300) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(626,300) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(626,300) = ( 626 × 300 ) / 2
LCM(626,300) = 187800 / 2
LCM(626,300) = 93900
