Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 403/55,538/8207
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 403,538
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 403,538 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 55,8207 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 55,8207 is 451385 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 403,538
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 403
List of positive integer factors of 403 that divides 403 without a remainder.
1,13,31,403
Factors of 538
List of positive integer factors of 538 that divides 538 without a remainder.
1,2,269,538
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 403,538 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 403,538 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,8207
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 451385
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/451385
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 403/55,538/8207 is 1/451385
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 55,8207 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,8207) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(55,8207) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(55,8207) = ( 55 × 8207 ) / 1
LCM(55,8207) = 451385 / 1
LCM(55,8207) = 451385
