Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 427/67,508/286
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 427,508
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 427,508 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 67,286 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 67,286 is 19162 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 427,508
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 427
List of positive integer factors of 427 that divides 427 without a remainder.
1,7,61,427
Factors of 508
List of positive integer factors of 508 that divides 508 without a remainder.
1,2,4,127,254,508
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 427,508 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 427,508 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 67,286
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19162
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19162
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 427/67,508/286 is 1/19162
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 67,286 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(67,286) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(67,286) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(67,286) = ( 67 × 286 ) / 1
LCM(67,286) = 19162 / 1
LCM(67,286) = 19162
