Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 7235/95,7855/401
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 7235,7855
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 7235,7855 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 95,401 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 95,401 is 38095 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 7235,7855
5 | 7235, 7855 |
1447, 1571 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

1,5,1447,7235
Factors of 7855
List of positive integer factors of 7855 that divides 7855 without a remainder.
1,5,1571,7855
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7235,7855 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7235,7855 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 95,401
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 38095
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/38095
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7235/95,7855/401 is 5/38095
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 95,401 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(95,401) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(95,401) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(95,401) = ( 95 × 401 ) / 1
LCM(95,401) = 38095 / 1
LCM(95,401) = 38095
