Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 635/16,901/2279
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 635,901
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 635,901 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 16,2279 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 16,2279 is 36464 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 635,901
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 635
List of positive integer factors of 635 that divides 635 without a remainder.
1,5,127,635
Factors of 901
List of positive integer factors of 901 that divides 901 without a remainder.
1,17,53,901
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 635,901 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 635,901 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,2279
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 36464
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/36464
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 635/16,901/2279 is 1/36464
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 16,2279 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,2279) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(16,2279) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(16,2279) = ( 16 × 2279 ) / 1
LCM(16,2279) = 36464 / 1
LCM(16,2279) = 36464
