Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 653/636,169/361
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 653,169
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 653,169 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 636,361 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 636,361 is 229596 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 653,169
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 653
List of positive integer factors of 653 that divides 653 without a remainder.
1,653
Factors of 169
List of positive integer factors of 169 that divides 169 without a remainder.
1,13,169
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 653,169 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 653,169 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 636,361
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 229596
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/229596
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 653/636,169/361 is 1/229596
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 636,361 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(636,361) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(636,361) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(636,361) = ( 636 × 361 ) / 1
LCM(636,361) = 229596 / 1
LCM(636,361) = 229596
