Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 10/287,957/437
Formula to find GCF of Fractions is
GCF = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators
As per the formula GCF of Fractions let’s split into two parts and find the GCF of Numerators and LCM of Denominators
In the given fractions GCF of Numerators means GCF of 10,957
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 10,957 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 287,437 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 287,437 is 125419 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 10,957
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 10
List of positive integer factors of 10 that divides 10 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10
Factors of 957
List of positive integer factors of 957 that divides 957 without a remainder.
1,3,11,29,33,87,319,957
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 10,957 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 10,957 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 287,437
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 125419
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/125419
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 10/287,957/437 is 1/125419
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 287,437 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(287,437) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(287,437) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(287,437) = ( 287 × 437 ) / 1
LCM(287,437) = 125419 / 1
LCM(287,437) = 125419
