Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 531/991,199/795
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 531,199
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 531,199 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 991,795 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 991,795 is 787845 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 531,199
∴ 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 199
List of positive integer factors of 199 that divides 199 without a remainder.
1,199
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 531,199 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 531,199 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 991,795
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 787845
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/787845
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 531/991,199/795 is 1/787845
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 991,795 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(991,795) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(991,795) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(991,795) = ( 991 × 795 ) / 1
LCM(991,795) = 787845 / 1
LCM(991,795) = 787845
