Use our free GCF of Fractions Calculator tool to compute the GCF of 6/701, 2/106 i.e 2/74306 easily. The following is the detailed procedure to determine the greatest common factor of fractions 6/701, 2/106.
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 6/701,2/106
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 6/701,2/106, numerators are 6,2
Denominators are 701,106
The GCF of 6,2 is 2 .
LCM of 701,106 is 74306.
The greatest common factor of 6/701,2/106 = [GCF of 6,2]/[LCM of 701,106]= 2/74306
Therefore, the GCF of 6/701,2/106 is 2/74306.
To find the highest common factor of 6,2, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, 6
The factors of 2 are 1, 2
The HCF of 6,2 is 2.
Lets's calculate GCF of 6,2
2 | 6, 2 |
3, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Lets's calculate LCM of 701,106
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 74306
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/74306
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6/701,2/106 is 2/74306
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 701,106 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(701,106) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(701,106) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(701,106) = ( 701 × 106 ) / 1
LCM(701,106) = 74306 / 1
LCM(701,106) = 74306
