Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 61/229,59/7328
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 61/229,59/7328, numerators are 61,59
Denominators are 229,7328
The GCF of 61,59 is 1 .
LCM of 229,7328 is 7328.
The greatest common factor of 61/229,59/7328 = [GCF of 61,59]/[LCM of 229,7328]= 1/7328
Therefore, the GCF of 61/229,59/7328 is 1/7328.
To find the highest common factor of 61,59, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 61 are 1, 61
The factors of 59 are 1, 59
The HCF of 61,59 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 61,59
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Lets's calculate LCM of 229,7328
229 | 229, 7328 |
1, 32 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 229 x 1 x 32 = 7328
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7328
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 61/229,59/7328 is 1/7328
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 229,7328 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(229,7328) = 229
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(229,7328) x common factors =229 x 1 = 229
LCM(229,7328) = ( 229 × 7328 ) / 229
LCM(229,7328) = 1678112 / 229
LCM(229,7328) = 7328
