Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 75/831,955/693
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 75,955
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 75,955 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 831,693 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 831,693 is 191961 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 75,955
5 | 75, 955 |
15, 191 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Factors of 75
List of positive integer factors of 75 that divides 75 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15,25,75
Factors of 955
List of positive integer factors of 955 that divides 955 without a remainder.
1,5,191,955
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 75,955 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 75,955 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 831,693
3 | 831, 693 |
277, 231 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 277 x 231 = 191961
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/191961
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 75/831,955/693 is 5/191961
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 831,693 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(831,693) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(831,693) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(831,693) = ( 831 × 693 ) / 3
LCM(831,693) = 575883 / 3
LCM(831,693) = 191961
