Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 259/904,2917/803
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 259,2917
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 259,2917 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 904,803 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 904,803 is 725912 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 259,2917
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 259
List of positive integer factors of 259 that divides 259 without a remainder.
1,7,37,259
Factors of 2917
List of positive integer factors of 2917 that divides 2917 without a remainder.
1,2917
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 259,2917 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 259,2917 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 904,803
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 725912
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/725912
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 259/904,2917/803 is 1/725912
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 904,803 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(904,803) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(904,803) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(904,803) = ( 904 × 803 ) / 1
LCM(904,803) = 725912 / 1
LCM(904,803) = 725912
