Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 92/728,253/584
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 92,253
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 92,253 is 23 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 728,584 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 728,584 is 53144 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 92,253
23 | 92, 253 |
4, 11 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 23 = 23
Factors of 92
List of positive integer factors of 92 that divides 92 without a remainder.
1,2,4,23,46,92
Factors of 253
List of positive integer factors of 253 that divides 253 without a remainder.
1,11,23,253
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 92,253 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 92,253 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 728,584
2 | 728, 584 |
2 | 364, 292 |
2 | 182, 146 |
91, 73 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 91 x 73 = 53144
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/53144
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 92/728,253/584 is 23/53144
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 728,584 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(728,584) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(728,584) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(728,584) = ( 728 × 584 ) / 8
LCM(728,584) = 425152 / 8
LCM(728,584) = 53144
