Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 93/247,31/9887
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 93,31
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 93,31 is 31 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 247,9887 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 247,9887 is 2442089 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 93,31
31 | 93, 31 |
3, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 31 = 31
Factors of 93
List of positive integer factors of 93 that divides 93 without a remainder.
1,3,31,93
Factors of 31
List of positive integer factors of 31 that divides 31 without a remainder.
1,31
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 93,31 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 93,31 is 31.
Lets's calculate LCM of 247,9887
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2442089
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 31/2442089
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 93/247,31/9887 is 31/2442089
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 247,9887 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(247,9887) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(247,9887) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(247,9887) = ( 247 × 9887 ) / 1
LCM(247,9887) = 2442089 / 1
LCM(247,9887) = 2442089
