Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 381/875,5007/307
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 381,5007
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 381,5007 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 875,307 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 875,307 is 268625 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 381,5007
3 | 381, 5007 |
127, 1669 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 381
List of positive integer factors of 381 that divides 381 without a remainder.
1,3,127,381
Factors of 5007
List of positive integer factors of 5007 that divides 5007 without a remainder.
1,3,1669,5007
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 381,5007 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 381,5007 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 875,307
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 268625
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/268625
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 381/875,5007/307 is 3/268625
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 875,307 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(875,307) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(875,307) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(875,307) = ( 875 × 307 ) / 1
LCM(875,307) = 268625 / 1
LCM(875,307) = 268625
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
