Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 175/26,8509/797
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 175,8509
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 175,8509 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 26,797 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 26,797 is 20722 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 175,8509
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 175
List of positive integer factors of 175 that divides 175 without a remainder.
1,5,7,25,35,175
Factors of 8509
List of positive integer factors of 8509 that divides 8509 without a remainder.
1,67,127,8509
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 175,8509 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 175,8509 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,797
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 20722
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20722
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 175/26,8509/797 is 1/20722
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 26,797 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,797) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(26,797) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(26,797) = ( 26 × 797 ) / 1
LCM(26,797) = 20722 / 1
LCM(26,797) = 20722
