Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 886/205,9979/550
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 886,9979
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 886,9979 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 205,550 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 205,550 is 22550 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 886,9979
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 886
List of positive integer factors of 886 that divides 886 without a remainder.
1,2,443,886
Factors of 9979
List of positive integer factors of 9979 that divides 9979 without a remainder.
1,17,587,9979
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 886,9979 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 886,9979 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 205,550
5 | 205, 550 |
41, 110 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 41 x 110 = 22550
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/22550
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 886/205,9979/550 is 1/22550
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 205,550 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(205,550) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(205,550) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(205,550) = ( 205 × 550 ) / 5
LCM(205,550) = 112750 / 5
LCM(205,550) = 22550
