Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 284/617,143/571
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 284,143
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 284,143 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 617,571 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 617,571 is 352307 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 284,143
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 284
List of positive integer factors of 284 that divides 284 without a remainder.
1,2,4,71,142,284
Factors of 143
List of positive integer factors of 143 that divides 143 without a remainder.
1,11,13,143
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 284,143 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 284,143 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 617,571
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 352307
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/352307
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 284/617,143/571 is 1/352307
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 617,571 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(617,571) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(617,571) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(617,571) = ( 617 × 571 ) / 1
LCM(617,571) = 352307 / 1
LCM(617,571) = 352307
