Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 7402/34,2207/252
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 7402,2207
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 7402,2207 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 34,252 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 34,252 is 4284 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 7402,2207
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 2207
List of positive integer factors of 2207 that divides 2207 without a remainder.
1,2207
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7402,2207 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7402,2207 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 34,252
2 | 34, 252 |
17, 126 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 17 x 126 = 4284
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4284
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7402/34,2207/252 is 1/4284
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 34,252 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(34,252) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(34,252) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(34,252) = ( 34 × 252 ) / 2
LCM(34,252) = 8568 / 2
LCM(34,252) = 4284
