Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 421/53,436/5215
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 421,436
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 421,436 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 53,5215 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 53,5215 is 276395 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 421,436
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 421
List of positive integer factors of 421 that divides 421 without a remainder.
1,421
Factors of 436
List of positive integer factors of 436 that divides 436 without a remainder.
1,2,4,109,218,436
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 421,436 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 421,436 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,5215
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 276395
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/276395
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 421/53,436/5215 is 1/276395
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 53,5215 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,5215) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,5215) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,5215) = ( 53 × 5215 ) / 1
LCM(53,5215) = 276395 / 1
LCM(53,5215) = 276395
