Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 71/487,71/4259
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 71/487,71/4259, numerators are 71,71
Denominators are 487,4259
The GCF of 71,71 is 71 .
LCM of 487,4259 is 2074133.
The greatest common factor of 71/487,71/4259 = [GCF of 71,71]/[LCM of 487,4259]= 71/2074133
Therefore, the GCF of 71/487,71/4259 is 71/2074133.
To find the highest common factor of 71,71, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 71 are 1, 71
The factors of 71 are 1, 71
The HCF of 71,71 is 71.
Lets's calculate GCF of 71,71
71 | 71, 71 |
1, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 71 = 71
Lets's calculate LCM of 487,4259
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2074133
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 71/2074133
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 71/487,71/4259 is 71/2074133
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 487,4259 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(487,4259) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(487,4259) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(487,4259) = ( 487 × 4259 ) / 1
LCM(487,4259) = 2074133 / 1
LCM(487,4259) = 2074133
