Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 230/452,2390/877
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 230,2390
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 230,2390 is 10 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 452,877 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 452,877 is 396404 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 230,2390
2 | 230, 2390 |
5 | 115, 1195 |
23, 239 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 5 = 10

Factors of 2390
List of positive integer factors of 2390 that divides 2390 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,239,478,1195,2390
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 230,2390 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 230,2390 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 452,877
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 396404
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/396404
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 230/452,2390/877 is 10/396404
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 452,877 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(452,877) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(452,877) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(452,877) = ( 452 × 877 ) / 1
LCM(452,877) = 396404 / 1
LCM(452,877) = 396404
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
