Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 914/120,659/411
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 914,659
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 914,659 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 120,411 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 120,411 is 16440 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 914,659
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 914
List of positive integer factors of 914 that divides 914 without a remainder.
1,2,457,914
Factors of 659
List of positive integer factors of 659 that divides 659 without a remainder.
1,659
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 914,659 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 914,659 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 120,411
3 | 120, 411 |
40, 137 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 40 x 137 = 16440
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/16440
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 914/120,659/411 is 1/16440
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 120,411 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(120,411) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(120,411) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(120,411) = ( 120 × 411 ) / 3
LCM(120,411) = 49320 / 3
LCM(120,411) = 16440
