Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 517/21,9569/477
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 517,9569
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 517,9569 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 21,477 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 21,477 is 3339 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 517,9569
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 517
List of positive integer factors of 517 that divides 517 without a remainder.
1,11,47,517
Factors of 9569
List of positive integer factors of 9569 that divides 9569 without a remainder.
1,7,1367,9569
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 517,9569 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 517,9569 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 21,477
3 | 21, 477 |
7, 159 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 159 = 3339
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3339
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 517/21,9569/477 is 1/3339
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 21,477 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(21,477) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(21,477) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(21,477) = ( 21 × 477 ) / 3
LCM(21,477) = 10017 / 3
LCM(21,477) = 3339
