Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 941/53,2879/429
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 941,2879
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 941,2879 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 53,429 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 53,429 is 22737 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 941,2879
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 941
List of positive integer factors of 941 that divides 941 without a remainder.
1,941
Factors of 2879
List of positive integer factors of 2879 that divides 2879 without a remainder.
1,2879
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 941,2879 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 941,2879 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,429
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 22737
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/22737
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 941/53,2879/429 is 1/22737
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 53,429 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,429) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,429) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,429) = ( 53 × 429 ) / 1
LCM(53,429) = 22737 / 1
LCM(53,429) = 22737
