Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 27/407,37/8160
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 27,37
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 27,37 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 407,8160 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 407,8160 is 3321120 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 27,37
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 27
List of positive integer factors of 27 that divides 27 without a remainder.
1,3,9,27
Factors of 37
List of positive integer factors of 37 that divides 37 without a remainder.
1,37
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 27,37 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 27,37 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 407,8160
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3321120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3321120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 27/407,37/8160 is 1/3321120
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 407,8160 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(407,8160) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(407,8160) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(407,8160) = ( 407 × 8160 ) / 1
LCM(407,8160) = 3321120 / 1
LCM(407,8160) = 3321120
