Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 4231/64,6859/163
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 4231,6859
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 4231,6859 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 64,163 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 64,163 is 10432 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 4231,6859
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 4231
List of positive integer factors of 4231 that divides 4231 without a remainder.
1,4231
Factors of 6859
List of positive integer factors of 6859 that divides 6859 without a remainder.
1,19,361,6859
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4231,6859 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4231,6859 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 64,163
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10432
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10432
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4231/64,6859/163 is 1/10432
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 64,163 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(64,163) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(64,163) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(64,163) = ( 64 × 163 ) / 1
LCM(64,163) = 10432 / 1
LCM(64,163) = 10432
