Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 88/901,176/645
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 88,176
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 88,176 is 88 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 901,645 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 901,645 is 581145 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 88,176
2 | 88, 176 |
2 | 44, 88 |
2 | 22, 44 |
11 | 11, 22 |
1, 2 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 11 = 88
Factors of 88
List of positive integer factors of 88 that divides 88 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,11,22,44,88
Factors of 176
List of positive integer factors of 176 that divides 176 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,11,16,22,44,88,176
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 88,176 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 88,176 is 88.
Lets's calculate LCM of 901,645
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 581145
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 88/581145
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 88/901,176/645 is 88/581145
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 901,645 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(901,645) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(901,645) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(901,645) = ( 901 × 645 ) / 1
LCM(901,645) = 581145 / 1
LCM(901,645) = 581145
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
