Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 97/941,3131/4184
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 97,3131
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 97,3131 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 941,4184 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 941,4184 is 3937144 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 97,3131
∴ 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 3131
List of positive integer factors of 3131 that divides 3131 without a remainder.
1,31,101,3131
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 97,3131 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 97,3131 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 941,4184
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3937144
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3937144
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 97/941,3131/4184 is 1/3937144
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 941,4184 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(941,4184) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(941,4184) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(941,4184) = ( 941 × 4184 ) / 1
LCM(941,4184) = 3937144 / 1
LCM(941,4184) = 3937144
