Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 321/76,879/5097
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 321,879
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 321,879 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 76,5097 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 76,5097 is 387372 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 321,879
3 | 321, 879 |
107, 293 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 321
List of positive integer factors of 321 that divides 321 without a remainder.
1,3,107,321
Factors of 879
List of positive integer factors of 879 that divides 879 without a remainder.
1,3,293,879
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 321,879 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 321,879 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 76,5097
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 387372
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/387372
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 321/76,879/5097 is 3/387372
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 76,5097 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(76,5097) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(76,5097) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(76,5097) = ( 76 × 5097 ) / 1
LCM(76,5097) = 387372 / 1
LCM(76,5097) = 387372
