Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 691/334,8495/157
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 691,8495
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 691,8495 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 334,157 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 334,157 is 52438 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 691,8495
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 691
List of positive integer factors of 691 that divides 691 without a remainder.
1,691
Factors of 8495
List of positive integer factors of 8495 that divides 8495 without a remainder.
1,5,1699,8495
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 691,8495 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 691,8495 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 334,157
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 52438
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/52438
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 691/334,8495/157 is 1/52438
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 334,157 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(334,157) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(334,157) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(334,157) = ( 334 × 157 ) / 1
LCM(334,157) = 52438 / 1
LCM(334,157) = 52438
