Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 343/86,703/787
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 343,703
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 343,703 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 86,787 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 86,787 is 67682 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 343,703
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 343
List of positive integer factors of 343 that divides 343 without a remainder.
1,7,49,343
Factors of 703
List of positive integer factors of 703 that divides 703 without a remainder.
1,19,37,703
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 343,703 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 343,703 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 86,787
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 67682
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/67682
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 343/86,703/787 is 1/67682
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 86,787 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(86,787) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(86,787) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(86,787) = ( 86 × 787 ) / 1
LCM(86,787) = 67682 / 1
LCM(86,787) = 67682
