Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 440/157,937/566
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 440,937
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 440,937 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 157,566 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 157,566 is 88862 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 440,937
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 440
List of positive integer factors of 440 that divides 440 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,8,10,11,20,22,40,44,55,88,110,220,440
Factors of 937
List of positive integer factors of 937 that divides 937 without a remainder.
1,937
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 440,937 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 440,937 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 157,566
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 88862
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/88862
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 440/157,937/566 is 1/88862
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 157,566 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(157,566) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(157,566) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(157,566) = ( 157 × 566 ) / 1
LCM(157,566) = 88862 / 1
LCM(157,566) = 88862
