Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 849/17,150/5719
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 849,150
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 849,150 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 17,5719 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 17,5719 is 97223 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 849,150
3 | 849, 150 |
283, 50 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 849
List of positive integer factors of 849 that divides 849 without a remainder.
1,3,283,849
Factors of 150
List of positive integer factors of 150 that divides 150 without a remainder.
1,2,3,5,6,10,15,25,30,50,75,150
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 849,150 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 849,150 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,5719
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 97223
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/97223
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 849/17,150/5719 is 3/97223
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 17,5719 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,5719) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,5719) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,5719) = ( 17 × 5719 ) / 1
LCM(17,5719) = 97223 / 1
LCM(17,5719) = 97223
