Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 211/50,266/3278
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 211,266
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 211,266 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 50,3278 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 50,3278 is 81950 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 211,266
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,211
Factors of 266
List of positive integer factors of 266 that divides 266 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,19,38,133,266
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 211,266 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 211,266 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 50,3278
2 | 50, 3278 |
25, 1639 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 25 x 1639 = 81950
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/81950
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 211/50,266/3278 is 1/81950
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 50,3278 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(50,3278) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(50,3278) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(50,3278) = ( 50 × 3278 ) / 2
LCM(50,3278) = 163900 / 2
LCM(50,3278) = 81950
