Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 8577/24,8121/427
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 8577,8121
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 8577,8121 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 24,427 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 24,427 is 10248 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 8577,8121
3 | 8577, 8121 |
2859, 2707 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

1,3,2707,8121
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8577,8121 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8577,8121 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,427
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10248
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/10248
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8577/24,8121/427 is 3/10248
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 24,427 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,427) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(24,427) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(24,427) = ( 24 × 427 ) / 1
LCM(24,427) = 10248 / 1
LCM(24,427) = 10248
