Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 597/15,3827/820
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 597,3827
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 597,3827 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 15,820 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 15,820 is 2460 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 597,3827
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,199,597
Factors of 3827
List of positive integer factors of 3827 that divides 3827 without a remainder.
1,43,89,3827
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 597,3827 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 597,3827 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,820
5 | 15, 820 |
3, 164 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 3 x 164 = 2460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 597/15,3827/820 is 1/2460
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 15,820 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,820) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(15,820) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(15,820) = ( 15 × 820 ) / 5
LCM(15,820) = 12300 / 5
LCM(15,820) = 2460
