Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 901/888,1786/769
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 901,1786
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 901,1786 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 888,769 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 888,769 is 682872 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 901,1786
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 901
List of positive integer factors of 901 that divides 901 without a remainder.
1,17,53,901
Factors of 1786
List of positive integer factors of 1786 that divides 1786 without a remainder.
1,2,19,38,47,94,893,1786
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 901,1786 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 901,1786 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 888,769
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 682872
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/682872
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 901/888,1786/769 is 1/682872
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 888,769 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(888,769) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(888,769) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(888,769) = ( 888 × 769 ) / 1
LCM(888,769) = 682872 / 1
LCM(888,769) = 682872
