Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 472/25,521/9839
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 472,521
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 472,521 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 25,9839 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 25,9839 is 245975 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 472,521
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 472
List of positive integer factors of 472 that divides 472 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,59,118,236,472
Factors of 521
List of positive integer factors of 521 that divides 521 without a remainder.
1,521
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 472,521 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 472,521 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 25,9839
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 245975
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/245975
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 472/25,521/9839 is 1/245975
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 25,9839 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(25,9839) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(25,9839) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(25,9839) = ( 25 × 9839 ) / 1
LCM(25,9839) = 245975 / 1
LCM(25,9839) = 245975
