Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 461/661,4003/5961
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 461,4003
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 461,4003 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 661,5961 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 661,5961 is 3940221 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 461,4003
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 461
List of positive integer factors of 461 that divides 461 without a remainder.
1,461
Factors of 4003
List of positive integer factors of 4003 that divides 4003 without a remainder.
1,4003
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 461,4003 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 461,4003 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 661,5961
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3940221
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3940221
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 461/661,4003/5961 is 1/3940221
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 661,5961 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(661,5961) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(661,5961) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(661,5961) = ( 661 × 5961 ) / 1
LCM(661,5961) = 3940221 / 1
LCM(661,5961) = 3940221
