Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 43/993,875/993
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 43,875
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 43,875 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 993,993 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 993,993 is 993 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 43,875
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 43
List of positive integer factors of 43 that divides 43 without a remainder.
1,43
Factors of 875
List of positive integer factors of 875 that divides 875 without a remainder.
1,5,7,25,35,125,175,875
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 43,875 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 43,875 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 993,993
3 | 993, 993 |
331 | 331, 331 |
1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 331 x 1 x 1 = 993
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/993
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 43/993,875/993 is 1/993
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 993,993 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(993,993) = 993
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(993,993) x common factors =993 x 1 = 993
LCM(993,993) = ( 993 × 993 ) / 993
LCM(993,993) = 986049 / 993
LCM(993,993) = 993
