Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 991/328,983/509
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 991,983
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 991,983 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 328,509 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 328,509 is 166952 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 991,983
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 991
List of positive integer factors of 991 that divides 991 without a remainder.
1,991
Factors of 983
List of positive integer factors of 983 that divides 983 without a remainder.
1,983
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 991,983 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 991,983 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 328,509
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 166952
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/166952
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 991/328,983/509 is 1/166952
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 328,509 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(328,509) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(328,509) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(328,509) = ( 328 × 509 ) / 1
LCM(328,509) = 166952 / 1
LCM(328,509) = 166952
