Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 704/17,215/3951
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 704,215
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 704,215 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 17,3951 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 17,3951 is 67167 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 704,215
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 704
List of positive integer factors of 704 that divides 704 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,11,16,22,32,44,64,88,176,352,704
Factors of 215
List of positive integer factors of 215 that divides 215 without a remainder.
1,5,43,215
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 704,215 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 704,215 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,3951
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 67167
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/67167
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 704/17,215/3951 is 1/67167
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 17,3951 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,3951) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,3951) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,3951) = ( 17 × 3951 ) / 1
LCM(17,3951) = 67167 / 1
LCM(17,3951) = 67167
