Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 515/847,586/561
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 515,586
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 515,586 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 847,561 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 847,561 is 43197 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 515,586
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 515
List of positive integer factors of 515 that divides 515 without a remainder.
1,5,103,515
Factors of 586
List of positive integer factors of 586 that divides 586 without a remainder.
1,2,293,586
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 515,586 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 515,586 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 847,561
11 | 847, 561 |
77, 51 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 77 x 51 = 43197
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/43197
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 515/847,586/561 is 1/43197
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 847,561 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(847,561) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(847,561) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(847,561) = ( 847 × 561 ) / 11
LCM(847,561) = 475167 / 11
LCM(847,561) = 43197
