Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 521/74,368/5913
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 521,368
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 521,368 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 74,5913 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 74,5913 is 437562 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 521,368
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 521
List of positive integer factors of 521 that divides 521 without a remainder.
1,521
Factors of 368
List of positive integer factors of 368 that divides 368 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,23,46,92,184,368
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 521,368 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 521,368 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,5913
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 437562
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/437562
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 521/74,368/5913 is 1/437562
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 74,5913 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,5913) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(74,5913) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(74,5913) = ( 74 × 5913 ) / 1
LCM(74,5913) = 437562 / 1
LCM(74,5913) = 437562
