Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 251/539,457/853
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 251,457
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 251,457 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 539,853 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 539,853 is 459767 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 251,457
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 251
List of positive integer factors of 251 that divides 251 without a remainder.
1,251
Factors of 457
List of positive integer factors of 457 that divides 457 without a remainder.
1,457
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 251,457 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 251,457 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 539,853
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 459767
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/459767
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 251/539,457/853 is 1/459767
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 539,853 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(539,853) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(539,853) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(539,853) = ( 539 × 853 ) / 1
LCM(539,853) = 459767 / 1
LCM(539,853) = 459767
