Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 850/2100,631/9750
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 850,631
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 850,631 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 2100,9750 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 2100,9750 is 136500 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 850,631
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 850 that divides 850 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,17,25,34,50,85,170,425,850
Factors of 631
List of positive integer factors of 631 that divides 631 without a remainder.
1,631
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 850,631 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 850,631 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 2100,9750
2 | 2100, 9750 |
3 | 1050, 4875 |
5 | 350, 1625 |
5 | 70, 325 |
14, 65 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 5 x 5 x 14 x 65 = 136500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/136500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 850/2100,631/9750 is 1/136500
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 2100,9750 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(2100,9750) = 150
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(2100,9750) x common factors =150 x 1 = 150
LCM(2100,9750) = ( 2100 × 9750 ) / 150
LCM(2100,9750) = 20475000 / 150
LCM(2100,9750) = 136500
