Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 937/256,965/517
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 937,965
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 937,965 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 256,517 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 256,517 is 132352 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 937,965
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 937
List of positive integer factors of 937 that divides 937 without a remainder.
1,937
Factors of 965
List of positive integer factors of 965 that divides 965 without a remainder.
1,5,193,965
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 937,965 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 937,965 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 256,517
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 132352
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/132352
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 937/256,965/517 is 1/132352
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 256,517 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(256,517) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(256,517) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(256,517) = ( 256 × 517 ) / 1
LCM(256,517) = 132352 / 1
LCM(256,517) = 132352
