Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 22/996,877/726
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 22,877
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 22,877 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 996,726 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 996,726 is 120516 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 22,877
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 22
List of positive integer factors of 22 that divides 22 without a remainder.
1,2,11,22
Factors of 877
List of positive integer factors of 877 that divides 877 without a remainder.
1,877
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 22,877 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 22,877 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 996,726
2 | 996, 726 |
3 | 498, 363 |
166, 121 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 166 x 121 = 120516
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/120516
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 22/996,877/726 is 1/120516
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 996,726 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(996,726) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(996,726) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(996,726) = ( 996 × 726 ) / 6
LCM(996,726) = 723096 / 6
LCM(996,726) = 120516
