Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 4861/244,5462/477
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 4861,5462
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 4861,5462 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 244,477 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 244,477 is 116388 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 4861,5462
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 4861
List of positive integer factors of 4861 that divides 4861 without a remainder.
1,4861
Factors of 5462
List of positive integer factors of 5462 that divides 5462 without a remainder.
1,2,2731,5462
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4861,5462 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4861,5462 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 244,477
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 116388
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/116388
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4861/244,5462/477 is 1/116388
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 244,477 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(244,477) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(244,477) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(244,477) = ( 244 × 477 ) / 1
LCM(244,477) = 116388 / 1
LCM(244,477) = 116388
