Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 561/29,409/501
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 561,409
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 561,409 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 29,501 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 29,501 is 14529 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 561,409
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 561
List of positive integer factors of 561 that divides 561 without a remainder.
1,3,11,17,33,51,187,561
Factors of 409
List of positive integer factors of 409 that divides 409 without a remainder.
1,409
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 561,409 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 561,409 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,501
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 14529
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/14529
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 561/29,409/501 is 1/14529
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 29,501 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,501) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(29,501) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(29,501) = ( 29 × 501 ) / 1
LCM(29,501) = 14529 / 1
LCM(29,501) = 14529
