Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 902/73,450/327
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 902,450
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 902,450 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 73,327 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 73,327 is 23871 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 902,450
2 | 902, 450 |
451, 225 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

So the greatest common factor 902,450 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,327
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 23871
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/23871
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 902/73,450/327 is 2/23871
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 73,327 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,327) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,327) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,327) = ( 73 × 327 ) / 1
LCM(73,327) = 23871 / 1
LCM(73,327) = 23871
