Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 13/288,37/778
To find the GCF of fractions, we have to find the GCF of numerator numbers and LCM of denominator numbers. Its formula is given by
GCF of Fraction = Greatest Common Factor of Numerator/Least Common Multiple of Denominators
In the fractions 13/288,37/778, numerators are 13,37
Denominators are 288,778
The GCF of 13,37 is 1 .
LCM of 288,778 is 112032.
The greatest common factor of 13/288,37/778 = [GCF of 13,37]/[LCM of 288,778]= 1/112032
Therefore, the GCF of 13/288,37/778 is 1/112032.
To find the highest common factor of 13,37, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 13 are 1, 13
The factors of 37 are 1, 37
The HCF of 13,37 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 13,37
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Lets's calculate LCM of 288,778
2 | 288, 778 |
144, 389 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 144 x 389 = 112032
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/112032
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 13/288,37/778 is 1/112032
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 288,778 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(288,778) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(288,778) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(288,778) = ( 288 × 778 ) / 2
LCM(288,778) = 224064 / 2
LCM(288,778) = 112032
