Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 87/881,59/475
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 87,59
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 87,59 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 881,475 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 881,475 is 418475 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 87,59
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 87
List of positive integer factors of 87 that divides 87 without a remainder.
1,3,29,87
Factors of 59
List of positive integer factors of 59 that divides 59 without a remainder.
1,59
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 87,59 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 87,59 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 881,475
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 418475
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/418475
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 87/881,59/475 is 1/418475
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 881,475 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(881,475) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(881,475) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(881,475) = ( 881 × 475 ) / 1
LCM(881,475) = 418475 / 1
LCM(881,475) = 418475
