Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 500/624,1177/631
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 500,1177
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 500,1177 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 624,631 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 624,631 is 393744 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 500,1177
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 500
List of positive integer factors of 500 that divides 500 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,10,20,25,50,100,125,250,500
Factors of 1177
List of positive integer factors of 1177 that divides 1177 without a remainder.
1,11,107,1177
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 500,1177 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 500,1177 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 624,631
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 393744
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/393744
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 500/624,1177/631 is 1/393744
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 624,631 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(624,631) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(624,631) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(624,631) = ( 624 × 631 ) / 1
LCM(624,631) = 393744 / 1
LCM(624,631) = 393744
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
