Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 5002/43,3154/326
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 5002,3154
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 5002,3154 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 43,326 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 43,326 is 14018 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 5002,3154
2 | 5002, 3154 |
2501, 1577 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,41,61,82,122,2501,5002
Factors of 3154
List of positive integer factors of 3154 that divides 3154 without a remainder.
1,2,19,38,83,166,1577,3154
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5002,3154 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5002,3154 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,326
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 14018
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/14018
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5002/43,3154/326 is 2/14018
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 43,326 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,326) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,326) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,326) = ( 43 × 326 ) / 1
LCM(43,326) = 14018 / 1
LCM(43,326) = 14018
