Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 827/41,579/731
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 827,579
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 827,579 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 41,731 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 41,731 is 29971 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 827,579
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 827
List of positive integer factors of 827 that divides 827 without a remainder.
1,827
Factors of 579
List of positive integer factors of 579 that divides 579 without a remainder.
1,3,193,579
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 827,579 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 827,579 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,731
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 29971
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29971
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 827/41,579/731 is 1/29971
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 41,731 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,731) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,731) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,731) = ( 41 × 731 ) / 1
LCM(41,731) = 29971 / 1
LCM(41,731) = 29971
