Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 8571/15,7611/407
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 8571,7611
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 8571,7611 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 15,407 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 15,407 is 6105 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 8571,7611
3 | 8571, 7611 |
2857, 2537 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

1,3,2857,8571
Factors of 7611
List of positive integer factors of 7611 that divides 7611 without a remainder.
1,3,43,59,129,177,2537,7611
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8571,7611 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8571,7611 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,407
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6105
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/6105
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8571/15,7611/407 is 3/6105
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 15,407 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,407) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(15,407) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(15,407) = ( 15 × 407 ) / 1
LCM(15,407) = 6105 / 1
LCM(15,407) = 6105
