Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 446/457,1607/8549
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 446,1607
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 446,1607 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 457,8549 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 457,8549 is 3906893 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 446,1607
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 446
List of positive integer factors of 446 that divides 446 without a remainder.
1,2,223,446
Factors of 1607
List of positive integer factors of 1607 that divides 1607 without a remainder.
1,1607
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 446,1607 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 446,1607 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 457,8549
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3906893
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3906893
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 446/457,1607/8549 is 1/3906893
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 457,8549 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(457,8549) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(457,8549) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(457,8549) = ( 457 × 8549 ) / 1
LCM(457,8549) = 3906893 / 1
LCM(457,8549) = 3906893
