Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 8761/27,7001/185
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 8761,7001
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 8761,7001 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 27,185 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 27,185 is 4995 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 8761,7001
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 8761
List of positive integer factors of 8761 that divides 8761 without a remainder.
1,8761
Factors of 7001
List of positive integer factors of 7001 that divides 7001 without a remainder.
1,7001
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8761,7001 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8761,7001 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 27,185
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4995
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4995
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8761/27,7001/185 is 1/4995
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 27,185 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(27,185) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(27,185) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(27,185) = ( 27 × 185 ) / 1
LCM(27,185) = 4995 / 1
LCM(27,185) = 4995
