Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 108/14,238/7747
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 108,238
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 108,238 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 14,7747 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 14,7747 is 108458 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 108,238
2 | 108, 238 |
54, 119 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 238
List of positive integer factors of 238 that divides 238 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,17,34,119,238
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 108,238 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 108,238 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,7747
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 108458
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/108458
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 108/14,238/7747 is 2/108458
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 14,7747 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,7747) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(14,7747) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(14,7747) = ( 14 × 7747 ) / 1
LCM(14,7747) = 108458 / 1
LCM(14,7747) = 108458
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
