Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 802/288,551/715
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 802,551
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 802,551 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 288,715 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 288,715 is 205920 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 802,551
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 802
List of positive integer factors of 802 that divides 802 without a remainder.
1,2,401,802
Factors of 551
List of positive integer factors of 551 that divides 551 without a remainder.
1,19,29,551
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 802,551 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 802,551 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 288,715
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 205920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/205920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 802/288,551/715 is 1/205920
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 288,715 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(288,715) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(288,715) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(288,715) = ( 288 × 715 ) / 1
LCM(288,715) = 205920 / 1
LCM(288,715) = 205920
