Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 234/926,164/789
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 234,164
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 234,164 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 926,789 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 926,789 is 730614 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 234,164
2 | 234, 164 |
117, 82 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,3,6,9,13,18,26,39,78,117,234
Factors of 164
List of positive integer factors of 164 that divides 164 without a remainder.
1,2,4,41,82,164
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 234,164 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 234,164 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 926,789
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 730614
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/730614
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 234/926,164/789 is 2/730614
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 926,789 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(926,789) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(926,789) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(926,789) = ( 926 × 789 ) / 1
LCM(926,789) = 730614 / 1
LCM(926,789) = 730614
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
