Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 318/270,4003/557
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 318,4003
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 318,4003 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 270,557 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 270,557 is 150390 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 318,4003
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 318
List of positive integer factors of 318 that divides 318 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,53,106,159,318
Factors of 4003
List of positive integer factors of 4003 that divides 4003 without a remainder.
1,4003
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 318,4003 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 318,4003 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 270,557
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 150390
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/150390
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 318/270,4003/557 is 1/150390
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 270,557 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(270,557) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(270,557) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(270,557) = ( 270 × 557 ) / 1
LCM(270,557) = 150390 / 1
LCM(270,557) = 150390
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
