Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 2591/88,1726/381
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 2591,1726
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 2591,1726 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 88,381 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 88,381 is 33528 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 2591,1726
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 2591
List of positive integer factors of 2591 that divides 2591 without a remainder.
1,2591
Factors of 1726
List of positive integer factors of 1726 that divides 1726 without a remainder.
1,2,863,1726
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2591,1726 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2591,1726 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 88,381
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 33528
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/33528
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2591/88,1726/381 is 1/33528
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 88,381 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(88,381) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(88,381) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(88,381) = ( 88 × 381 ) / 1
LCM(88,381) = 33528 / 1
LCM(88,381) = 33528
