Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 865/510,173/403
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 865,173
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 865,173 is 173 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 510,403 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 510,403 is 205530 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 865,173
173 | 865, 173 |
5, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 173 = 173
Factors of 865
List of positive integer factors of 865 that divides 865 without a remainder.
1,5,173,865
Factors of 173
List of positive integer factors of 173 that divides 173 without a remainder.
1,173
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 865,173 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 865,173 is 173.
Lets's calculate LCM of 510,403
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 205530
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 173/205530
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 865/510,173/403 is 173/205530
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 510,403 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(510,403) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(510,403) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(510,403) = ( 510 × 403 ) / 1
LCM(510,403) = 205530 / 1
LCM(510,403) = 205530
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
