Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 995/41,778/739
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 995,778
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 995,778 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 41,739 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 41,739 is 30299 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 995,778
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 995
List of positive integer factors of 995 that divides 995 without a remainder.
1,5,199,995
Factors of 778
List of positive integer factors of 778 that divides 778 without a remainder.
1,2,389,778
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 995,778 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 995,778 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,739
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 30299
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/30299
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 995/41,778/739 is 1/30299
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 41,739 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,739) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,739) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,739) = ( 41 × 739 ) / 1
LCM(41,739) = 30299 / 1
LCM(41,739) = 30299
