Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 723/487,2966/824
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 723,2966
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 723,2966 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 487,824 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 487,824 is 401288 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 723,2966
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 723
List of positive integer factors of 723 that divides 723 without a remainder.
1,3,241,723
Factors of 2966
List of positive integer factors of 2966 that divides 2966 without a remainder.
1,2,1483,2966
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 723,2966 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 723,2966 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 487,824
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 401288
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/401288
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 723/487,2966/824 is 1/401288
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 487,824 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(487,824) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(487,824) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(487,824) = ( 487 × 824 ) / 1
LCM(487,824) = 401288 / 1
LCM(487,824) = 401288
