Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 2579/274,1882/533
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 2579,1882
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 2579,1882 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 274,533 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 274,533 is 146042 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 2579,1882
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 2579
List of positive integer factors of 2579 that divides 2579 without a remainder.
1,2579
Factors of 1882
List of positive integer factors of 1882 that divides 1882 without a remainder.
1,2,941,1882
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2579,1882 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2579,1882 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 274,533
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 146042
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/146042
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2579/274,1882/533 is 1/146042
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 274,533 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(274,533) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(274,533) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(274,533) = ( 274 × 533 ) / 1
LCM(274,533) = 146042 / 1
LCM(274,533) = 146042
