Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 26/553,887/264
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 26,887
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 26,887 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 553,264 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 553,264 is 145992 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 26,887
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 26
List of positive integer factors of 26 that divides 26 without a remainder.
1,2,13,26
Factors of 887
List of positive integer factors of 887 that divides 887 without a remainder.
1,887
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 26,887 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 26,887 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 553,264
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 145992
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/145992
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 26/553,887/264 is 1/145992
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 553,264 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(553,264) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(553,264) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(553,264) = ( 553 × 264 ) / 1
LCM(553,264) = 145992 / 1
LCM(553,264) = 145992
