Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 150/623,496/837
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 150,496
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 150,496 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 623,837 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 623,837 is 521451 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 150,496
2 | 150, 496 |
75, 248 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 496
List of positive integer factors of 496 that divides 496 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,31,62,124,248,496
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 150,496 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 150,496 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 623,837
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 521451
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/521451
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 150/623,496/837 is 2/521451
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 623,837 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(623,837) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(623,837) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(623,837) = ( 623 × 837 ) / 1
LCM(623,837) = 521451 / 1
LCM(623,837) = 521451
