Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 473/66,501/671
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 473,501
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 473,501 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 66,671 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 66,671 is 4026 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 473,501
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 473
List of positive integer factors of 473 that divides 473 without a remainder.
1,11,43,473
Factors of 501
List of positive integer factors of 501 that divides 501 without a remainder.
1,3,167,501
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 473,501 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 473,501 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 66,671
11 | 66, 671 |
6, 61 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 6 x 61 = 4026
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4026
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 473/66,501/671 is 1/4026
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 66,671 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(66,671) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(66,671) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(66,671) = ( 66 × 671 ) / 11
LCM(66,671) = 44286 / 11
LCM(66,671) = 4026
