Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 514/97,5132/260
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 514,5132
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 514,5132 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 97,260 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 97,260 is 25220 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 514,5132
2 | 514, 5132 |
257, 2566 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,257,514
Factors of 5132
List of positive integer factors of 5132 that divides 5132 without a remainder.
1,2,4,1283,2566,5132
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 514,5132 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 514,5132 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 97,260
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 25220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/25220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 514/97,5132/260 is 2/25220
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 97,260 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(97,260) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(97,260) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(97,260) = ( 97 × 260 ) / 1
LCM(97,260) = 25220 / 1
LCM(97,260) = 25220
