Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1994/67,4501/372
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 1994,4501
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1994,4501 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 67,372 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 67,372 is 24924 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1994,4501
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 1994
List of positive integer factors of 1994 that divides 1994 without a remainder.
1,2,997,1994
Factors of 4501
List of positive integer factors of 4501 that divides 4501 without a remainder.
1,7,643,4501
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1994,4501 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1994,4501 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 67,372
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 24924
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/24924
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1994/67,4501/372 is 1/24924
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 67,372 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(67,372) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(67,372) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(67,372) = ( 67 × 372 ) / 1
LCM(67,372) = 24924 / 1
LCM(67,372) = 24924
