Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 11/396,1606/8669
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 11,1606
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 11,1606 is 11 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 396,8669 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 396,8669 is 3432924 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 11,1606
11 | 11, 1606 |
1, 146 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 = 11

Factors of 1606
List of positive integer factors of 1606 that divides 1606 without a remainder.
1,2,11,22,73,146,803,1606
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 11,1606 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 11,1606 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 396,8669
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3432924
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/3432924
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 11/396,1606/8669 is 11/3432924
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 396,8669 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(396,8669) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(396,8669) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(396,8669) = ( 396 × 8669 ) / 1
LCM(396,8669) = 3432924 / 1
LCM(396,8669) = 3432924
