Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 91/445,494/391
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 91,494
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 91,494 is 13 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 445,391 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 445,391 is 173995 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 91,494
13 | 91, 494 |
7, 38 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 13 = 13
Factors of 91
List of positive integer factors of 91 that divides 91 without a remainder.
1,7,13,91
Factors of 494
List of positive integer factors of 494 that divides 494 without a remainder.
1,2,13,19,26,38,247,494
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 91,494 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 91,494 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 445,391
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 173995
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/173995
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 91/445,494/391 is 13/173995
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 445,391 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(445,391) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(445,391) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(445,391) = ( 445 × 391 ) / 1
LCM(445,391) = 173995 / 1
LCM(445,391) = 173995
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
