Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 67/472,956/895
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 67,956
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 67,956 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 472,895 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 472,895 is 422440 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 67,956
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 67
List of positive integer factors of 67 that divides 67 without a remainder.
1,67
Factors of 956
List of positive integer factors of 956 that divides 956 without a remainder.
1,2,4,239,478,956
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 67,956 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 67,956 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 472,895
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 422440
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/422440
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 67/472,956/895 is 1/422440
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 472,895 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(472,895) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(472,895) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(472,895) = ( 472 × 895 ) / 1
LCM(472,895) = 422440 / 1
LCM(472,895) = 422440
