Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 871/313,104/943
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 871,104
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 871,104 is 13 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 313,943 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 313,943 is 295159 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 871,104
13 | 871, 104 |
67, 8 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 13 = 13
Factors of 871
List of positive integer factors of 871 that divides 871 without a remainder.
1,13,67,871
Factors of 104
List of positive integer factors of 104 that divides 104 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,13,26,52,104
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 871,104 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 871,104 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 313,943
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 295159
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/295159
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 871/313,104/943 is 13/295159
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 313,943 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(313,943) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(313,943) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(313,943) = ( 313 × 943 ) / 1
LCM(313,943) = 295159 / 1
LCM(313,943) = 295159
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
