Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 276/371,360/867
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 276,360
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 276,360 is 12 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 371,867 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 371,867 is 321657 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 276,360
2 | 276, 360 |
2 | 138, 180 |
3 | 69, 90 |
23, 30 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 = 12

We found the factors 276,360 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 276,360 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 371,867
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 321657
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/321657
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 276/371,360/867 is 12/321657
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 371,867 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(371,867) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(371,867) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(371,867) = ( 371 × 867 ) / 1
LCM(371,867) = 321657 / 1
LCM(371,867) = 321657
