Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 4511/13,2847/313
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 4511,2847
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 4511,2847 is 13 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 13,313 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 13,313 is 4069 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 4511,2847
13 | 4511, 2847 |
347, 219 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 13 = 13
Factors of 4511
List of positive integer factors of 4511 that divides 4511 without a remainder.
1,13,347,4511
Factors of 2847
List of positive integer factors of 2847 that divides 2847 without a remainder.
1,3,13,39,73,219,949,2847
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4511,2847 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4511,2847 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 13,313
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4069
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/4069
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4511/13,2847/313 is 13/4069
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 13,313 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(13,313) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(13,313) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(13,313) = ( 13 × 313 ) / 1
LCM(13,313) = 4069 / 1
LCM(13,313) = 4069
