Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 990/20,1531/963
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 990,1531
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 990,1531 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 20,963 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 20,963 is 19260 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 990,1531
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 990
List of positive integer factors of 990 that divides 990 without a remainder.
1,2,3,5,6,9,10,11,15,18,22,30,33,45,55,66,90,99,110,165,198,330,495,990
Factors of 1531
List of positive integer factors of 1531 that divides 1531 without a remainder.
1,1531
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 990,1531 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 990,1531 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,963
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19260
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19260
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 990/20,1531/963 is 1/19260
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 20,963 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,963) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(20,963) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(20,963) = ( 20 × 963 ) / 1
LCM(20,963) = 19260 / 1
LCM(20,963) = 19260
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
