Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 6341/91,4301/120
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 6341,4301
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 6341,4301 is 17 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 91,120 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 91,120 is 10920 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 6341,4301
17 | 6341, 4301 |
373, 253 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 17 = 17

1,17,373,6341
Factors of 4301
List of positive integer factors of 4301 that divides 4301 without a remainder.
1,11,17,23,187,253,391,4301
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6341,4301 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6341,4301 is 17.
Lets's calculate LCM of 91,120
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/10920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6341/91,4301/120 is 17/10920
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 91,120 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(91,120) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(91,120) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(91,120) = ( 91 × 120 ) / 1
LCM(91,120) = 10920 / 1
LCM(91,120) = 10920
