Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 799/403,2942/1445
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 799,2942
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 799,2942 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 403,1445 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 403,1445 is 582335 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 799,2942
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 799
List of positive integer factors of 799 that divides 799 without a remainder.
1,17,47,799
Factors of 2942
List of positive integer factors of 2942 that divides 2942 without a remainder.
1,2,1471,2942
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 799,2942 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 799,2942 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 403,1445
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 582335
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/582335
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 799/403,2942/1445 is 1/582335
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 403,1445 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(403,1445) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(403,1445) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(403,1445) = ( 403 × 1445 ) / 1
LCM(403,1445) = 582335 / 1
LCM(403,1445) = 582335
