Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3943/164,7877/899
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 3943,7877
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3943,7877 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 164,899 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 164,899 is 147436 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3943,7877
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 3943
List of positive integer factors of 3943 that divides 3943 without a remainder.
1,3943
Factors of 7877
List of positive integer factors of 7877 that divides 7877 without a remainder.
1,7877
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3943,7877 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3943,7877 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 164,899
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 147436
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/147436
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3943/164,7877/899 is 1/147436
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 164,899 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(164,899) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(164,899) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(164,899) = ( 164 × 899 ) / 1
LCM(164,899) = 147436 / 1
LCM(164,899) = 147436
