Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1001/831,2949/355
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 1001,2949
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1001,2949 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 831,355 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 831,355 is 295005 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1001,2949
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 1001
List of positive integer factors of 1001 that divides 1001 without a remainder.
1,7,11,13,77,91,143,1001
Factors of 2949
List of positive integer factors of 2949 that divides 2949 without a remainder.
1,3,983,2949
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1001,2949 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1001,2949 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 831,355
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 295005
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/295005
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1001/831,2949/355 is 1/295005
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 831,355 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(831,355) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(831,355) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(831,355) = ( 831 × 355 ) / 1
LCM(831,355) = 295005 / 1
LCM(831,355) = 295005
