Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 15/888,61/1529
To find the GCF of fractions, we have to find the GCF of numerator numbers and LCM of denominator numbers. Its formula is given by
GCF of Fraction = Greatest Common Factor of Numerator/Least Common Multiple of Denominators
In the fractions 15/888,61/1529, numerators are 15,61
Denominators are 888,1529
The GCF of 15,61 is 1 .
LCM of 888,1529 is 1357752.
The greatest common factor of 15/888,61/1529 = [GCF of 15,61]/[LCM of 888,1529]= 1/1357752
Therefore, the GCF of 15/888,61/1529 is 1/1357752.
To find the highest common factor of 15,61, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 15 are 1, 3, 5, 15
The factors of 61 are 1, 61
The HCF of 15,61 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 15,61
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Lets's calculate LCM of 888,1529
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1357752
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1357752
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 15/888,61/1529 is 1/1357752
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 888,1529 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(888,1529) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(888,1529) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(888,1529) = ( 888 × 1529 ) / 1
LCM(888,1529) = 1357752 / 1
LCM(888,1529) = 1357752
