Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 509/47,875/853
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 509,875
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 509,875 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 47,853 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 47,853 is 40091 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 509,875
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 509
List of positive integer factors of 509 that divides 509 without a remainder.
1,509
Factors of 875
List of positive integer factors of 875 that divides 875 without a remainder.
1,5,7,25,35,125,175,875
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 509,875 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 509,875 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,853
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 40091
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/40091
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 509/47,875/853 is 1/40091
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 47,853 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,853) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,853) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,853) = ( 47 × 853 ) / 1
LCM(47,853) = 40091 / 1
LCM(47,853) = 40091
