Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 694/972,8605/587
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 694,8605
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 694,8605 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 972,587 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 972,587 is 570564 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 694,8605
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 694
List of positive integer factors of 694 that divides 694 without a remainder.
1,2,347,694
Factors of 8605
List of positive integer factors of 8605 that divides 8605 without a remainder.
1,5,1721,8605
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 694,8605 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 694,8605 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 972,587
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 570564
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/570564
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 694/972,8605/587 is 1/570564
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 972,587 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(972,587) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(972,587) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(972,587) = ( 972 × 587 ) / 1
LCM(972,587) = 570564 / 1
LCM(972,587) = 570564
