Use our free GCF of Fractions Calculator tool to compute the GCF of 11/501, 11/393 i.e 11/65631 easily. The following is the detailed procedure to determine the greatest common factor of fractions 11/501, 11/393.
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 11/501,11/393
To find the GCF of fractions, we have to find the GCF of numerator numbers and LCM of denominator numbers. Its formula is given by
GCF of Fraction = Greatest Common Factor of Numerator/Least Common Multiple of Denominators
In the fractions 11/501,11/393, numerators are 11,11
Denominators are 501,393
The GCF of 11,11 is 11 .
LCM of 501,393 is 65631.
The greatest common factor of 11/501,11/393 = [GCF of 11,11]/[LCM of 501,393]= 11/65631
Therefore, the GCF of 11/501,11/393 is 11/65631.
To find the highest common factor of 11,11, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 11 are 1, 11
The factors of 11 are 1, 11
The HCF of 11,11 is 11.
Lets's calculate GCF of 11,11
11 | 11, 11 |
1, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 = 11
Lets's calculate LCM of 501,393
3 | 501, 393 |
167, 131 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 167 x 131 = 65631
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/65631
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 11/501,11/393 is 11/65631
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 501,393 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(501,393) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(501,393) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(501,393) = ( 501 × 393 ) / 3
LCM(501,393) = 196893 / 3
LCM(501,393) = 65631
