Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 369/15,615/533
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 369,615
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 369,615 is 123 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 15,533 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 15,533 is 7995 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 369,615
3 | 369, 615 |
41 | 123, 205 |
3, 5 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 41 = 123
Factors of 369
List of positive integer factors of 369 that divides 369 without a remainder.
1,3,9,41,123,369
Factors of 615
List of positive integer factors of 615 that divides 615 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15,41,123,205,615
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 369,615 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 369,615 is 123.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,533
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7995
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 123/7995
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 369/15,615/533 is 123/7995
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 15,533 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,533) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(15,533) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(15,533) = ( 15 × 533 ) / 1
LCM(15,533) = 7995 / 1
LCM(15,533) = 7995
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
