Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 531/581,671/969
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 531,671
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 531,671 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 581,969 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 581,969 is 562989 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 531,671
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 531
List of positive integer factors of 531 that divides 531 without a remainder.
1,3,9,59,177,531
Factors of 671
List of positive integer factors of 671 that divides 671 without a remainder.
1,11,61,671
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 531,671 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 531,671 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 581,969
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 562989
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/562989
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 531/581,671/969 is 1/562989
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 581,969 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(581,969) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(581,969) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(581,969) = ( 581 × 969 ) / 1
LCM(581,969) = 562989 / 1
LCM(581,969) = 562989
