Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 43/893,129/553
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 43,129
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 43,129 is 43 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 893,553 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 893,553 is 493829 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 43,129
43 | 43, 129 |
1, 3 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 43 = 43
Factors of 43
List of positive integer factors of 43 that divides 43 without a remainder.
1,43
Factors of 129
List of positive integer factors of 129 that divides 129 without a remainder.
1,3,43,129
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 43,129 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 43,129 is 43.
Lets's calculate LCM of 893,553
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 493829
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 43/493829
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 43/893,129/553 is 43/493829
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 893,553 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(893,553) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(893,553) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(893,553) = ( 893 × 553 ) / 1
LCM(893,553) = 493829 / 1
LCM(893,553) = 493829
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
