Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 7273/96,2021/242
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 7273,2021
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 7273,2021 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 96,242 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 96,242 is 11616 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 7273,2021
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 2021 that divides 2021 without a remainder.
1,43,47,2021
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7273,2021 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7273,2021 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 96,242
2 | 96, 242 |
48, 121 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 48 x 121 = 11616
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11616
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7273/96,2021/242 is 1/11616
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 96,242 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(96,242) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(96,242) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(96,242) = ( 96 × 242 ) / 2
LCM(96,242) = 23232 / 2
LCM(96,242) = 11616
