Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 8321/20,4397/903
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 8321,4397
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 8321,4397 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 20,903 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 20,903 is 18060 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 8321,4397
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 8321
List of positive integer factors of 8321 that divides 8321 without a remainder.
1,53,157,8321
Factors of 4397
List of positive integer factors of 4397 that divides 4397 without a remainder.
1,4397
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8321,4397 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8321,4397 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,903
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 18060
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/18060
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8321/20,4397/903 is 1/18060
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 20,903 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,903) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(20,903) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(20,903) = ( 20 × 903 ) / 1
LCM(20,903) = 18060 / 1
LCM(20,903) = 18060
