Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 155/104,460/262
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 155,460
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 155,460 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 104,262 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 104,262 is 13624 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 155,460
5 | 155, 460 |
31, 92 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

1,2,4,5,10,20,23,46,92,115,230,460
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 155,460 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 155,460 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 104,262
2 | 104, 262 |
52, 131 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 52 x 131 = 13624
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/13624
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 155/104,460/262 is 5/13624
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 104,262 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(104,262) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(104,262) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(104,262) = ( 104 × 262 ) / 2
LCM(104,262) = 27248 / 2
LCM(104,262) = 13624
