Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3739/761,1273/555
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 3739,1273
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3739,1273 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 761,555 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 761,555 is 422355 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3739,1273
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 3739
List of positive integer factors of 3739 that divides 3739 without a remainder.
1,3739
Factors of 1273
List of positive integer factors of 1273 that divides 1273 without a remainder.
1,19,67,1273
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3739,1273 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3739,1273 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 761,555
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 422355
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/422355
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3739/761,1273/555 is 1/422355
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 761,555 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(761,555) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(761,555) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(761,555) = ( 761 × 555 ) / 1
LCM(761,555) = 422355 / 1
LCM(761,555) = 422355
