Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 230/46,410/1516
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 230,410
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 230,410 is 10 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 46,1516 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 46,1516 is 34868 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 230,410
2 | 230, 410 |
5 | 115, 205 |
23, 41 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 5 = 10

Factors of 410
List of positive integer factors of 410 that divides 410 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,41,82,205,410
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 230,410 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 230,410 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,1516
2 | 46, 1516 |
23, 758 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 23 x 758 = 34868
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/34868
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 230/46,410/1516 is 10/34868
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 46,1516 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,1516) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,1516) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(46,1516) = ( 46 × 1516 ) / 2
LCM(46,1516) = 69736 / 2
LCM(46,1516) = 34868
