Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 2405/26,2479/361
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 2405,2479
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 2405,2479 is 37 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 26,361 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 26,361 is 9386 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 2405,2479
37 | 2405, 2479 |
65, 67 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 37 = 37

1,5,13,37,65,185,481,2405
Factors of 2479
List of positive integer factors of 2479 that divides 2479 without a remainder.
1,37,67,2479
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2405,2479 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2405,2479 is 37.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,361
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9386
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 37/9386
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2405/26,2479/361 is 37/9386
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 26,361 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,361) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(26,361) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(26,361) = ( 26 × 361 ) / 1
LCM(26,361) = 9386 / 1
LCM(26,361) = 9386
