Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 533/183,724/227
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 533,724
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 533,724 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 183,227 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 183,227 is 41541 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 533,724
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 533
List of positive integer factors of 533 that divides 533 without a remainder.
1,13,41,533
Factors of 724
List of positive integer factors of 724 that divides 724 without a remainder.
1,2,4,181,362,724
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 533,724 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 533,724 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 183,227
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 41541
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/41541
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 533/183,724/227 is 1/41541
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 183,227 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(183,227) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(183,227) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(183,227) = ( 183 × 227 ) / 1
LCM(183,227) = 41541 / 1
LCM(183,227) = 41541
