Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 7531/15,4007/189
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 7531,4007
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 7531,4007 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 15,189 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 15,189 is 945 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 7531,4007
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 7531
List of positive integer factors of 7531 that divides 7531 without a remainder.
1,17,443,7531
Factors of 4007
List of positive integer factors of 4007 that divides 4007 without a remainder.
1,4007
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7531,4007 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7531,4007 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,189
3 | 15, 189 |
5, 63 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 63 = 945
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/945
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7531/15,4007/189 is 1/945
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 15,189 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,189) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(15,189) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(15,189) = ( 15 × 189 ) / 3
LCM(15,189) = 2835 / 3
LCM(15,189) = 945
