Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 201/20,825/7537
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 201,825
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 201,825 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 20,7537 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 20,7537 is 150740 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 201,825
3 | 201, 825 |
67, 275 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 201
List of positive integer factors of 201 that divides 201 without a remainder.
1,3,67,201
Factors of 825
List of positive integer factors of 825 that divides 825 without a remainder.
1,3,5,11,15,25,33,55,75,165,275,825
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 201,825 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 201,825 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,7537
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 150740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/150740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 201/20,825/7537 is 3/150740
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 20,7537 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,7537) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(20,7537) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(20,7537) = ( 20 × 7537 ) / 1
LCM(20,7537) = 150740 / 1
LCM(20,7537) = 150740
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
