Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 6259/955,2661/972
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 6259,2661
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 6259,2661 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 955,972 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 955,972 is 928260 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 6259,2661
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 6259
List of positive integer factors of 6259 that divides 6259 without a remainder.
1,11,569,6259
Factors of 2661
List of positive integer factors of 2661 that divides 2661 without a remainder.
1,3,887,2661
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6259,2661 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6259,2661 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 955,972
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 928260
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/928260
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6259/955,2661/972 is 1/928260
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 955,972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(955,972) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(955,972) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(955,972) = ( 955 × 972 ) / 1
LCM(955,972) = 928260 / 1
LCM(955,972) = 928260
