Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 417/38,3428/401
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 417,3428
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 417,3428 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 38,401 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 38,401 is 15238 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 417,3428
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 417
List of positive integer factors of 417 that divides 417 without a remainder.
1,3,139,417
Factors of 3428
List of positive integer factors of 3428 that divides 3428 without a remainder.
1,2,4,857,1714,3428
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 417,3428 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 417,3428 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 38,401
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 15238
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/15238
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 417/38,3428/401 is 1/15238
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 38,401 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(38,401) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(38,401) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(38,401) = ( 38 × 401 ) / 1
LCM(38,401) = 15238 / 1
LCM(38,401) = 15238
