Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 989/364,548/346
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 989,548
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 989,548 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 364,346 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 364,346 is 62972 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 989,548
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 989
List of positive integer factors of 989 that divides 989 without a remainder.
1,23,43,989
Factors of 548
List of positive integer factors of 548 that divides 548 without a remainder.
1,2,4,137,274,548
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 989,548 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 989,548 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 364,346
2 | 364, 346 |
182, 173 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 182 x 173 = 62972
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/62972
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 989/364,548/346 is 1/62972
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 364,346 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(364,346) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(364,346) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(364,346) = ( 364 × 346 ) / 2
LCM(364,346) = 125944 / 2
LCM(364,346) = 62972
