Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 749/23,846/555
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 749,846
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 749,846 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 23,555 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 23,555 is 12765 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 749,846
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 749
List of positive integer factors of 749 that divides 749 without a remainder.
1,7,107,749
Factors of 846
List of positive integer factors of 846 that divides 846 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,18,47,94,141,282,423,846
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 749,846 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 749,846 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,555
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 12765
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12765
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 749/23,846/555 is 1/12765
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 23,555 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,555) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,555) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,555) = ( 23 × 555 ) / 1
LCM(23,555) = 12765 / 1
LCM(23,555) = 12765
