Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 220/537,5001/175
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 220,5001
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 220,5001 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 537,175 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 537,175 is 93975 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 220,5001
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 220
List of positive integer factors of 220 that divides 220 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,10,11,20,22,44,55,110,220
Factors of 5001
List of positive integer factors of 5001 that divides 5001 without a remainder.
1,3,1667,5001
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 220,5001 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 220,5001 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 537,175
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 93975
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/93975
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 220/537,5001/175 is 1/93975
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 537,175 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(537,175) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(537,175) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(537,175) = ( 537 × 175 ) / 1
LCM(537,175) = 93975 / 1
LCM(537,175) = 93975
