Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 973/56,1299/533
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 973,1299
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 973,1299 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 56,533 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 56,533 is 29848 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 973,1299
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 973
List of positive integer factors of 973 that divides 973 without a remainder.
1,7,139,973
Factors of 1299
List of positive integer factors of 1299 that divides 1299 without a remainder.
1,3,433,1299
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 973,1299 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 973,1299 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 56,533
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 29848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 973/56,1299/533 is 1/29848
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 56,533 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(56,533) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(56,533) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(56,533) = ( 56 × 533 ) / 1
LCM(56,533) = 29848 / 1
LCM(56,533) = 29848
