Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 32/337,287/981
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 32,287
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 32,287 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 337,981 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 337,981 is 330597 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 32,287
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 32
List of positive integer factors of 32 that divides 32 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,32
Factors of 287
List of positive integer factors of 287 that divides 287 without a remainder.
1,7,41,287
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 32,287 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 32,287 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 337,981
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 330597
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/330597
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 32/337,287/981 is 1/330597
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 337,981 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(337,981) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(337,981) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(337,981) = ( 337 × 981 ) / 1
LCM(337,981) = 330597 / 1
LCM(337,981) = 330597
