Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 47/604,87/122
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 47/604,87/122, numerators are 47,87
Denominators are 604,122
The GCF of 47,87 is 1 .
LCM of 604,122 is 36844.
The greatest common factor of 47/604,87/122 = [GCF of 47,87]/[LCM of 604,122]= 1/36844
Therefore, the GCF of 47/604,87/122 is 1/36844.
To find the highest common factor of 47,87, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 47 are 1, 47
The factors of 87 are 1, 3, 29, 87
The HCF of 47,87 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 47,87
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Lets's calculate LCM of 604,122
2 | 604, 122 |
302, 61 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 302 x 61 = 36844
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/36844
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 47/604,87/122 is 1/36844
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 604,122 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(604,122) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(604,122) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(604,122) = ( 604 × 122 ) / 2
LCM(604,122) = 73688 / 2
LCM(604,122) = 36844
