Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 13/718,12/459
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 13/718,12/459, numerators are 13,12
Denominators are 718,459
The GCF of 13,12 is 1 .
LCM of 718,459 is 329562.
The greatest common factor of 13/718,12/459 = [GCF of 13,12]/[LCM of 718,459]= 1/329562
Therefore, the GCF of 13/718,12/459 is 1/329562.
To find the highest common factor of 13,12, 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 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
The HCF of 13,12 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 13,12
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 13
:1,13
Now, list down the factors of 12
:1,2,3,4,6,12
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 13,12 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 13,12 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 718,459
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 329562
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/329562
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 13/718,12/459 is 1/329562
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 718,459 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(718,459) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(718,459) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(718,459) = ( 718 × 459 ) / 1
LCM(718,459) = 329562 / 1
LCM(718,459) = 329562
