Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 202/35,598/5356
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 202,598
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 202,598 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 35,5356 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 35,5356 is 187460 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 202,598
2 | 202, 598 |
101, 299 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 598
List of positive integer factors of 598 that divides 598 without a remainder.
1,2,13,23,26,46,299,598
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 202,598 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 202,598 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 35,5356
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 187460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/187460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 202/35,598/5356 is 2/187460
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 35,5356 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(35,5356) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(35,5356) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(35,5356) = ( 35 × 5356 ) / 1
LCM(35,5356) = 187460 / 1
LCM(35,5356) = 187460
