Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 779/537,856/986
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 779,856
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 779,856 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 537,986 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 537,986 is 529482 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 779,856
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 779
List of positive integer factors of 779 that divides 779 without a remainder.
1,19,41,779
Factors of 856
List of positive integer factors of 856 that divides 856 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,107,214,428,856
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 779,856 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 779,856 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 537,986
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 529482
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/529482
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 779/537,856/986 is 1/529482
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 537,986 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(537,986) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(537,986) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(537,986) = ( 537 × 986 ) / 1
LCM(537,986) = 529482 / 1
LCM(537,986) = 529482
