Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 337/17,2571/336
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 337,2571
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 337,2571 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 17,336 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 17,336 is 5712 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 337,2571
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 337
List of positive integer factors of 337 that divides 337 without a remainder.
1,337
Factors of 2571
List of positive integer factors of 2571 that divides 2571 without a remainder.
1,3,857,2571
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 337,2571 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 337,2571 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,336
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5712
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5712
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 337/17,2571/336 is 1/5712
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 17,336 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,336) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,336) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,336) = ( 17 × 336 ) / 1
LCM(17,336) = 5712 / 1
LCM(17,336) = 5712
