Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 9500/99,6760/227
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 9500,6760
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 9500,6760 is 20 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 99,227 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 99,227 is 22473 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 9500,6760
2 | 9500, 6760 |
2 | 4750, 3380 |
5 | 2375, 1690 |
475, 338 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 = 20

Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9500,6760 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9500,6760 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 99,227
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 22473
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/22473
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9500/99,6760/227 is 20/22473
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 99,227 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,227) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(99,227) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(99,227) = ( 99 × 227 ) / 1
LCM(99,227) = 22473 / 1
LCM(99,227) = 22473
