Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 2689/11,5515/997
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 2689,5515
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 2689,5515 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 11,997 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 11,997 is 10967 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 2689,5515
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 2689
List of positive integer factors of 2689 that divides 2689 without a remainder.
1,2689
Factors of 5515
List of positive integer factors of 5515 that divides 5515 without a remainder.
1,5,1103,5515
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2689,5515 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2689,5515 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10967
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10967
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2689/11,5515/997 is 1/10967
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 11,997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(11,997) = ( 11 × 997 ) / 1
LCM(11,997) = 10967 / 1
LCM(11,997) = 10967
