Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 21/632,5659/8785
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 21,5659
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 21,5659 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 632,8785 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 632,8785 is 5552120 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 21,5659
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 21
List of positive integer factors of 21 that divides 21 without a remainder.
1,3,7,21
Factors of 5659
List of positive integer factors of 5659 that divides 5659 without a remainder.
1,5659
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 21,5659 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 21,5659 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 632,8785
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5552120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5552120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 21/632,5659/8785 is 1/5552120
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 632,8785 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(632,8785) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(632,8785) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(632,8785) = ( 632 × 8785 ) / 1
LCM(632,8785) = 5552120 / 1
LCM(632,8785) = 5552120
