Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 241/9207,131/8987
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 241,131
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 241,131 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 9207,8987 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 9207,8987 is 7522119 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 241,131
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,241
Factors of 131
List of positive integer factors of 131 that divides 131 without a remainder.
1,131
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 241,131 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 241,131 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 9207,8987
11 | 9207, 8987 |
837, 817 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 837 x 817 = 7522119
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7522119
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 241/9207,131/8987 is 1/7522119
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 9207,8987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9207,8987) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9207,8987) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(9207,8987) = ( 9207 × 8987 ) / 11
LCM(9207,8987) = 82743309 / 11
LCM(9207,8987) = 7522119
