Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 165/849,982/165
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 165,982
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 165,982 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 849,165 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 849,165 is 46695 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 165,982
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 165 that divides 165 without a remainder.
1,3,5,11,15,33,55,165
Factors of 982
List of positive integer factors of 982 that divides 982 without a remainder.
1,2,491,982
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 165,982 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 165,982 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 849,165
3 | 849, 165 |
283, 55 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 283 x 55 = 46695
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/46695
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 165/849,982/165 is 1/46695
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 849,165 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(849,165) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(849,165) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(849,165) = ( 849 × 165 ) / 3
LCM(849,165) = 140085 / 3
LCM(849,165) = 46695
