Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 939/953,257/888
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 939,257
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 939,257 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 953,888 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 953,888 is 846264 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 939,257
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 939
List of positive integer factors of 939 that divides 939 without a remainder.
1,3,313,939
Factors of 257
List of positive integer factors of 257 that divides 257 without a remainder.
1,257
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 939,257 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 939,257 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 953,888
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 846264
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/846264
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 939/953,257/888 is 1/846264
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 953,888 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(953,888) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(953,888) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(953,888) = ( 953 × 888 ) / 1
LCM(953,888) = 846264 / 1
LCM(953,888) = 846264
