Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 981/34,150/377
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 981,150
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 981,150 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 34,377 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 34,377 is 12818 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 981,150
3 | 981, 150 |
327, 50 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 981
List of positive integer factors of 981 that divides 981 without a remainder.
1,3,9,109,327,981
Factors of 150
List of positive integer factors of 150 that divides 150 without a remainder.
1,2,3,5,6,10,15,25,30,50,75,150
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 981,150 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 981,150 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 34,377
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 12818
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/12818
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 981/34,150/377 is 3/12818
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 34,377 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(34,377) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(34,377) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(34,377) = ( 34 × 377 ) / 1
LCM(34,377) = 12818 / 1
LCM(34,377) = 12818
