Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 2189/12,2802/782
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 2189,2802
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 2189,2802 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 12,782 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 12,782 is 4692 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 2189,2802
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 2802
List of positive integer factors of 2802 that divides 2802 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,467,934,1401,2802
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2189,2802 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2189,2802 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 12,782
2 | 12, 782 |
6, 391 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 6 x 391 = 4692
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4692
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2189/12,2802/782 is 1/4692
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 12,782 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(12,782) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(12,782) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(12,782) = ( 12 × 782 ) / 2
LCM(12,782) = 9384 / 2
LCM(12,782) = 4692
