Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 97/701,516/697
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 97,516
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 97,516 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 701,697 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 701,697 is 488597 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 97,516
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 97
List of positive integer factors of 97 that divides 97 without a remainder.
1,97
Factors of 516
List of positive integer factors of 516 that divides 516 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,12,43,86,129,172,258,516
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 97,516 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 97,516 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 701,697
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 488597
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/488597
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 97/701,516/697 is 1/488597
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 701,697 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(701,697) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(701,697) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(701,697) = ( 701 × 697 ) / 1
LCM(701,697) = 488597 / 1
LCM(701,697) = 488597
