Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 31/473,49/152
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 31/473,49/152, numerators are 31,49
Denominators are 473,152
The GCF of 31,49 is 1 .
LCM of 473,152 is 71896.
The greatest common factor of 31/473,49/152 = [GCF of 31,49]/[LCM of 473,152]= 1/71896
Therefore, the GCF of 31/473,49/152 is 1/71896.
To find the highest common factor of 31,49, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 31 are 1, 31
The factors of 49 are 1, 7, 49
The HCF of 31,49 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 31,49
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Lets's calculate LCM of 473,152
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 71896
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/71896
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 31/473,49/152 is 1/71896
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 473,152 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(473,152) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(473,152) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(473,152) = ( 473 × 152 ) / 1
LCM(473,152) = 71896 / 1
LCM(473,152) = 71896
