Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 8221/403,2993/963
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 8221,2993
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 8221,2993 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 403,963 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 403,963 is 388089 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 8221,2993
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 8221
List of positive integer factors of 8221 that divides 8221 without a remainder.
1,8221
Factors of 2993
List of positive integer factors of 2993 that divides 2993 without a remainder.
1,41,73,2993
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8221,2993 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8221,2993 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 403,963
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 388089
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/388089
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8221/403,2993/963 is 1/388089
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 403,963 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(403,963) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(403,963) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(403,963) = ( 403 × 963 ) / 1
LCM(403,963) = 388089 / 1
LCM(403,963) = 388089
