Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 997/996,821/823
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 997,821
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 997,821 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 996,823 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 996,823 is 819708 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 997,821
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 997
List of positive integer factors of 997 that divides 997 without a remainder.
1,997
Factors of 821
List of positive integer factors of 821 that divides 821 without a remainder.
1,821
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 997,821 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 997,821 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 996,823
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 819708
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/819708
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 997/996,821/823 is 1/819708
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 996,823 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(996,823) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(996,823) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(996,823) = ( 996 × 823 ) / 1
LCM(996,823) = 819708 / 1
LCM(996,823) = 819708
