Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 898/512,5801/100
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 898,5801
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 898,5801 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 512,100 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 512,100 is 12800 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 898,5801
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 898
List of positive integer factors of 898 that divides 898 without a remainder.
1,2,449,898
Factors of 5801
List of positive integer factors of 5801 that divides 5801 without a remainder.
1,5801
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 898,5801 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 898,5801 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 512,100
2 | 512, 100 |
2 | 256, 50 |
128, 25 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 128 x 25 = 12800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 898/512,5801/100 is 1/12800
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 512,100 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(512,100) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(512,100) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(512,100) = ( 512 × 100 ) / 4
LCM(512,100) = 51200 / 4
LCM(512,100) = 12800
