Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 589/31,627/771
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 589,627
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 589,627 is 19 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 31,771 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 31,771 is 23901 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 589,627
19 | 589, 627 |
31, 33 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 19 = 19
Factors of 589
List of positive integer factors of 589 that divides 589 without a remainder.
1,19,31,589
Factors of 627
List of positive integer factors of 627 that divides 627 without a remainder.
1,3,11,19,33,57,209,627
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 589,627 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 589,627 is 19.
Lets's calculate LCM of 31,771
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 23901
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/23901
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 589/31,627/771 is 19/23901
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 31,771 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(31,771) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(31,771) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(31,771) = ( 31 × 771 ) / 1
LCM(31,771) = 23901 / 1
LCM(31,771) = 23901
