Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 7274/51,3056/430
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 7274,3056
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 7274,3056 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 51,430 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 51,430 is 21930 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 7274,3056
2 | 7274, 3056 |
3637, 1528 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,3637,7274
Factors of 3056
List of positive integer factors of 3056 that divides 3056 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,191,382,764,1528,3056
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7274,3056 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7274,3056 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,430
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21930
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/21930
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7274/51,3056/430 is 2/21930
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 51,430 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,430) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(51,430) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(51,430) = ( 51 × 430 ) / 1
LCM(51,430) = 21930 / 1
LCM(51,430) = 21930
