Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 327/87,668/727
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 327,668
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 327,668 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 87,727 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 87,727 is 63249 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 327,668
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 327
List of positive integer factors of 327 that divides 327 without a remainder.
1,3,109,327
Factors of 668
List of positive integer factors of 668 that divides 668 without a remainder.
1,2,4,167,334,668
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 327,668 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 327,668 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,727
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 63249
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/63249
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 327/87,668/727 is 1/63249
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 87,727 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,727) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(87,727) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(87,727) = ( 87 × 727 ) / 1
LCM(87,727) = 63249 / 1
LCM(87,727) = 63249
