Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 899/47,5983/115
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 899,5983
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 899,5983 is 31 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 47,115 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 47,115 is 5405 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 899,5983
31 | 899, 5983 |
29, 193 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 31 = 31
Factors of 899
List of positive integer factors of 899 that divides 899 without a remainder.
1,29,31,899
Factors of 5983
List of positive integer factors of 5983 that divides 5983 without a remainder.
1,31,193,5983
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 899,5983 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 899,5983 is 31.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,115
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5405
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 31/5405
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 899/47,5983/115 is 31/5405
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 47,115 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,115) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,115) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,115) = ( 47 × 115 ) / 1
LCM(47,115) = 5405 / 1
LCM(47,115) = 5405
