Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 223/46,300/3536
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 223,300
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 223,300 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 46,3536 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 46,3536 is 81328 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 223,300
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,223
Factors of 300
List of positive integer factors of 300 that divides 300 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,25,30,50,60,75,100,150,300
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 223,300 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 223,300 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,3536
2 | 46, 3536 |
23, 1768 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 23 x 1768 = 81328
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/81328
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 223/46,300/3536 is 1/81328
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 46,3536 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,3536) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,3536) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(46,3536) = ( 46 × 3536 ) / 2
LCM(46,3536) = 162656 / 2
LCM(46,3536) = 81328
