Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 6891/51,3693/377
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 6891,3693
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 6891,3693 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 51,377 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 51,377 is 19227 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 6891,3693
3 | 6891, 3693 |
2297, 1231 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 6891
List of positive integer factors of 6891 that divides 6891 without a remainder.
1,3,2297,6891
Factors of 3693
List of positive integer factors of 3693 that divides 3693 without a remainder.
1,3,1231,3693
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6891,3693 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6891,3693 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,377
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19227
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/19227
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6891/51,3693/377 is 3/19227
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 51,377 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,377) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(51,377) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(51,377) = ( 51 × 377 ) / 1
LCM(51,377) = 19227 / 1
LCM(51,377) = 19227
