Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 5165/13,3895/162
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 5165,3895
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 5165,3895 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 13,162 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 13,162 is 2106 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 5165,3895
5 | 5165, 3895 |
1033, 779 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

1,5,1033,5165
Factors of 3895
List of positive integer factors of 3895 that divides 3895 without a remainder.
1,5,19,41,95,205,779,3895
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5165,3895 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5165,3895 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 13,162
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2106
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/2106
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5165/13,3895/162 is 5/2106
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 13,162 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(13,162) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(13,162) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(13,162) = ( 13 × 162 ) / 1
LCM(13,162) = 2106 / 1
LCM(13,162) = 2106
