Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 137/566,217/747
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 137,217
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 137,217 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 566,747 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 566,747 is 422802 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 137,217
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 137
List of positive integer factors of 137 that divides 137 without a remainder.
1,137
Factors of 217
List of positive integer factors of 217 that divides 217 without a remainder.
1,7,31,217
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 137,217 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 137,217 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 566,747
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 422802
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/422802
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 137/566,217/747 is 1/422802
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 566,747 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(566,747) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(566,747) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(566,747) = ( 566 × 747 ) / 1
LCM(566,747) = 422802 / 1
LCM(566,747) = 422802
