Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 5342/11,5366/757
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 5342,5366
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 5342,5366 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 11,757 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 11,757 is 8327 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 5342,5366
2 | 5342, 5366 |
2671, 2683 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 5342
List of positive integer factors of 5342 that divides 5342 without a remainder.
1,2,2671,5342
Factors of 5366
List of positive integer factors of 5366 that divides 5366 without a remainder.
1,2,2683,5366
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5342,5366 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5342,5366 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,757
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8327
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/8327
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5342/11,5366/757 is 2/8327
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 11,757 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,757) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,757) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(11,757) = ( 11 × 757 ) / 1
LCM(11,757) = 8327 / 1
LCM(11,757) = 8327
