Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 2801/17,7021/997
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 2801,7021
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 2801,7021 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 17,997 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 17,997 is 16949 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 2801,7021
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 2801
List of positive integer factors of 2801 that divides 2801 without a remainder.
1,2801
Factors of 7021
List of positive integer factors of 7021 that divides 7021 without a remainder.
1,7,17,59,119,413,1003,7021
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2801,7021 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2801,7021 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 16949
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/16949
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2801/17,7021/997 is 1/16949
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 17,997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,997) = ( 17 × 997 ) / 1
LCM(17,997) = 16949 / 1
LCM(17,997) = 16949
