Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1778/29,2885/609
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 1778,2885
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1778,2885 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 29,609 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 29,609 is 609 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1778,2885
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 2885
List of positive integer factors of 2885 that divides 2885 without a remainder.
1,5,577,2885
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1778,2885 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1778,2885 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,609
29 | 29, 609 |
1, 21 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 29 x 1 x 21 = 609
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/609
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1778/29,2885/609 is 1/609
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 29,609 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,609) = 29
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(29,609) x common factors =29 x 1 = 29
LCM(29,609) = ( 29 × 609 ) / 29
LCM(29,609) = 17661 / 29
LCM(29,609) = 609
