Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 21/427,13/6536
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 21/427,13/6536, numerators are 21,13
Denominators are 427,6536
The GCF of 21,13 is 1 .
LCM of 427,6536 is 2790872.
The greatest common factor of 21/427,13/6536 = [GCF of 21,13]/[LCM of 427,6536]= 1/2790872
Therefore, the GCF of 21/427,13/6536 is 1/2790872.
To find the highest common factor of 21,13, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 21 are 1, 3, 7, 21
The factors of 13 are 1, 13
The HCF of 21,13 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 21,13
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Lets's calculate LCM of 427,6536
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2790872
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2790872
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 21/427,13/6536 is 1/2790872
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 427,6536 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(427,6536) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(427,6536) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(427,6536) = ( 427 × 6536 ) / 1
LCM(427,6536) = 2790872 / 1
LCM(427,6536) = 2790872
