Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 789/24,419/996
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 789,419
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 789,419 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 24,996 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 24,996 is 1992 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 789,419
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 789
List of positive integer factors of 789 that divides 789 without a remainder.
1,3,263,789
Factors of 419
List of positive integer factors of 419 that divides 419 without a remainder.
1,419
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 789,419 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 789,419 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,996
2 | 24, 996 |
2 | 12, 498 |
3 | 6, 249 |
2, 83 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 2 x 83 = 1992
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1992
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 789/24,419/996 is 1/1992
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 24,996 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,996) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(24,996) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(24,996) = ( 24 × 996 ) / 12
LCM(24,996) = 23904 / 12
LCM(24,996) = 1992
