Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 19/268,21/3122
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 19/268,21/3122, numerators are 19,21
Denominators are 268,3122
The GCF of 19,21 is 1 .
LCM of 268,3122 is 418348.
The greatest common factor of 19/268,21/3122 = [GCF of 19,21]/[LCM of 268,3122]= 1/418348
Therefore, the GCF of 19/268,21/3122 is 1/418348.
To find the highest common factor of 19,21, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 19 are 1, 19
The factors of 21 are 1, 3, 7, 21
The HCF of 19,21 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 19,21
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Lets's calculate LCM of 268,3122
2 | 268, 3122 |
134, 1561 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 134 x 1561 = 418348
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/418348
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 19/268,21/3122 is 1/418348
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 268,3122 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(268,3122) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(268,3122) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(268,3122) = ( 268 × 3122 ) / 2
LCM(268,3122) = 836696 / 2
LCM(268,3122) = 418348
