Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 4731/54,1561/800
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 4731,1561
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 4731,1561 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 54,800 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 54,800 is 21600 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 4731,1561
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,19,57,83,249,1577,4731
Factors of 1561
List of positive integer factors of 1561 that divides 1561 without a remainder.
1,7,223,1561
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4731,1561 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4731,1561 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 54,800
2 | 54, 800 |
27, 400 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 27 x 400 = 21600
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21600
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4731/54,1561/800 is 1/21600
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 54,800 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(54,800) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(54,800) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(54,800) = ( 54 × 800 ) / 2
LCM(54,800) = 43200 / 2
LCM(54,800) = 21600
