Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 711/277,411/886
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 711,411
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 711,411 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 277,886 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 277,886 is 245422 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 711,411
3 | 711, 411 |
237, 137 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 711
List of positive integer factors of 711 that divides 711 without a remainder.
1,3,9,79,237,711
Factors of 411
List of positive integer factors of 411 that divides 411 without a remainder.
1,3,137,411
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 711,411 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 711,411 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 277,886
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 245422
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/245422
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 711/277,411/886 is 3/245422
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 277,886 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(277,886) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(277,886) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(277,886) = ( 277 × 886 ) / 1
LCM(277,886) = 245422 / 1
LCM(277,886) = 245422
