Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 983/61,218/436
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 983,218
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 983,218 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 61,436 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 61,436 is 26596 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 983,218
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 983
List of positive integer factors of 983 that divides 983 without a remainder.
1,983
Factors of 218
List of positive integer factors of 218 that divides 218 without a remainder.
1,2,109,218
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 983,218 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 983,218 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 61,436
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 26596
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/26596
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 983/61,218/436 is 1/26596
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 61,436 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(61,436) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(61,436) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(61,436) = ( 61 × 436 ) / 1
LCM(61,436) = 26596 / 1
LCM(61,436) = 26596
