Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 679/55,3783/442
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 679,3783
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 679,3783 is 97 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 55,442 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 55,442 is 24310 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 679,3783
97 | 679, 3783 |
7, 39 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 97 = 97
Factors of 679

1,7,97,679
Factors of 3783
List of positive integer factors of 3783 that divides 3783 without a remainder.
1,3,13,39,97,291,1261,3783
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 679,3783 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 679,3783 is 97.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,442
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 24310
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 97/24310
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 679/55,3783/442 is 97/24310
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 55,442 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,442) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(55,442) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(55,442) = ( 55 × 442 ) / 1
LCM(55,442) = 24310 / 1
LCM(55,442) = 24310
