Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 222/367,888/886
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 222,888
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 222,888 is 222 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 367,886 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 367,886 is 325162 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 222,888
2 | 222, 888 |
3 | 111, 444 |
37 | 37, 148 |
1, 4 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 37 = 222

1,2,3,6,37,74,111,222
Factors of 888
List of positive integer factors of 888 that divides 888 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24,37,74,111,148,222,296,444,888
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 222,888 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 222,888 is 222.
Lets's calculate LCM of 367,886
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 325162
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 222/325162
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 222/367,888/886 is 222/325162
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 367,886 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(367,886) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(367,886) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(367,886) = ( 367 × 886 ) / 1
LCM(367,886) = 325162 / 1
LCM(367,886) = 325162
