Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 133/160,5117/117
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 133,5117
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 133,5117 is 7 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 160,117 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 160,117 is 18720 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 133,5117
7 | 133, 5117 |
19, 731 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 = 7

List of positive integer factors of 133 that divides 133 without a remainder.
1,7,19,133
Factors of 5117
List of positive integer factors of 5117 that divides 5117 without a remainder.
1,7,17,43,119,301,731,5117
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 133,5117 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 133,5117 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 160,117
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 18720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/18720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 133/160,5117/117 is 7/18720
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 160,117 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(160,117) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(160,117) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(160,117) = ( 160 × 117 ) / 1
LCM(160,117) = 18720 / 1
LCM(160,117) = 18720
