Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 679/446,2885/987
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 679,2885
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 679,2885 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 446,987 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 446,987 is 440202 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 679,2885
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 679
List of positive integer factors of 679 that divides 679 without a remainder.
1,7,97,679
Factors of 2885
List of positive integer factors of 2885 that divides 2885 without a remainder.
1,5,577,2885
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 679,2885 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 679,2885 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 446,987
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 440202
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/440202
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 679/446,2885/987 is 1/440202
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 446,987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(446,987) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(446,987) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(446,987) = ( 446 × 987 ) / 1
LCM(446,987) = 440202 / 1
LCM(446,987) = 440202
