Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 831/836,633/493
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 831,633
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 831,633 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 836,493 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 836,493 is 412148 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 831,633
3 | 831, 633 |
277, 211 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 831
List of positive integer factors of 831 that divides 831 without a remainder.
1,3,277,831
Factors of 633
List of positive integer factors of 633 that divides 633 without a remainder.
1,3,211,633
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 831,633 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 831,633 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 836,493
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 412148
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/412148
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 831/836,633/493 is 3/412148
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 836,493 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(836,493) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(836,493) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(836,493) = ( 836 × 493 ) / 1
LCM(836,493) = 412148 / 1
LCM(836,493) = 412148
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
