Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 7265/31,4358/972
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 7265,4358
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 7265,4358 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 31,972 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 31,972 is 30132 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 7265,4358
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 7265
List of positive integer factors of 7265 that divides 7265 without a remainder.
1,5,1453,7265
Factors of 4358
List of positive integer factors of 4358 that divides 4358 without a remainder.
1,2,2179,4358
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7265,4358 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7265,4358 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 31,972
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 30132
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/30132
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7265/31,4358/972 is 1/30132
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 31,972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(31,972) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(31,972) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(31,972) = ( 31 × 972 ) / 1
LCM(31,972) = 30132 / 1
LCM(31,972) = 30132
