Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 563/13,831/257
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 563,831
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 563,831 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 13,257 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 13,257 is 3341 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 563,831
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 563
List of positive integer factors of 563 that divides 563 without a remainder.
1,563
Factors of 831
List of positive integer factors of 831 that divides 831 without a remainder.
1,3,277,831
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 563,831 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 563,831 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 13,257
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3341
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3341
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 563/13,831/257 is 1/3341
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 13,257 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(13,257) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(13,257) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(13,257) = ( 13 × 257 ) / 1
LCM(13,257) = 3341 / 1
LCM(13,257) = 3341
