Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 66/499,99/2086
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 66,99
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 66,99 is 33 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 499,2086 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 499,2086 is 1040914 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 66,99
3 | 66, 99 |
11 | 22, 33 |
2, 3 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 11 = 33
Factors of 66
List of positive integer factors of 66 that divides 66 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,11,22,33,66
Factors of 99
List of positive integer factors of 99 that divides 99 without a remainder.
1,3,9,11,33,99
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 66,99 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 66,99 is 33.
Lets's calculate LCM of 499,2086
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1040914
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 33/1040914
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 66/499,99/2086 is 33/1040914
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 499,2086 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(499,2086) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(499,2086) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(499,2086) = ( 499 × 2086 ) / 1
LCM(499,2086) = 1040914 / 1
LCM(499,2086) = 1040914
