Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 182/1057,962/2479
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 182,962
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 182,962 is 26 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 1057,2479 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 1057,2479 is 2620303 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 182,962
2 | 182, 962 |
13 | 91, 481 |
7, 37 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 13 = 26

1,2,13,26,37,74,481,962
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 182,962 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 182,962 is 26.
Lets's calculate LCM of 1057,2479
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2620303
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 26/2620303
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 182/1057,962/2479 is 26/2620303
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 1057,2479 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(1057,2479) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(1057,2479) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(1057,2479) = ( 1057 × 2479 ) / 1
LCM(1057,2479) = 2620303 / 1
LCM(1057,2479) = 2620303
