Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 394/186,539/581
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 394,539
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 394,539 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 186,581 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 186,581 is 108066 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 394,539
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 394
List of positive integer factors of 394 that divides 394 without a remainder.
1,2,197,394
Factors of 539
List of positive integer factors of 539 that divides 539 without a remainder.
1,7,11,49,77,539
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 394,539 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 394,539 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 186,581
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 108066
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/108066
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 394/186,539/581 is 1/108066
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 186,581 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(186,581) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(186,581) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(186,581) = ( 186 × 581 ) / 1
LCM(186,581) = 108066 / 1
LCM(186,581) = 108066
