Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 849/11,874/669
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 849,874
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 849,874 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 11,669 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 11,669 is 7359 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 849,874
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 849
List of positive integer factors of 849 that divides 849 without a remainder.
1,3,283,849
Factors of 874
List of positive integer factors of 874 that divides 874 without a remainder.
1,2,19,23,38,46,437,874
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 849,874 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 849,874 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,669
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7359
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7359
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 849/11,874/669 is 1/7359
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 11,669 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,669) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,669) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(11,669) = ( 11 × 669 ) / 1
LCM(11,669) = 7359 / 1
LCM(11,669) = 7359
