Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 95/996,17/5501
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 95/996,17/5501, numerators are 95,17
Denominators are 996,5501
The GCF of 95,17 is 1 .
LCM of 996,5501 is 5478996.
The greatest common factor of 95/996,17/5501 = [GCF of 95,17]/[LCM of 996,5501]= 1/5478996
Therefore, the GCF of 95/996,17/5501 is 1/5478996.
To find the highest common factor of 95,17, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 95 are 1, 5, 19, 95
The factors of 17 are 1, 17
The HCF of 95,17 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 95,17
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Lets's calculate LCM of 996,5501
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5478996
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5478996
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 95/996,17/5501 is 1/5478996
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 996,5501 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(996,5501) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(996,5501) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(996,5501) = ( 996 × 5501 ) / 1
LCM(996,5501) = 5478996 / 1
LCM(996,5501) = 5478996
