Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 879/10,206/358
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 879,206
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 879,206 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 10,358 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 10,358 is 1790 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 879,206
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 879
List of positive integer factors of 879 that divides 879 without a remainder.
1,3,293,879
Factors of 206
List of positive integer factors of 206 that divides 206 without a remainder.
1,2,103,206
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 879,206 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 879,206 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 10,358
2 | 10, 358 |
5, 179 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 179 = 1790
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1790
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 879/10,206/358 is 1/1790
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 10,358 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(10,358) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(10,358) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(10,358) = ( 10 × 358 ) / 2
LCM(10,358) = 3580 / 2
LCM(10,358) = 1790
