Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 524/43,817/687
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 524,817
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 524,817 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 43,687 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 43,687 is 29541 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 524,817
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 524
List of positive integer factors of 524 that divides 524 without a remainder.
1,2,4,131,262,524
Factors of 817
List of positive integer factors of 817 that divides 817 without a remainder.
1,19,43,817
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 524,817 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 524,817 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,687
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 29541
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29541
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 524/43,817/687 is 1/29541
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 43,687 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,687) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,687) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,687) = ( 43 × 687 ) / 1
LCM(43,687) = 29541 / 1
LCM(43,687) = 29541
