Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 288/51,1416/412
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 288,1416
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 288,1416 is 24 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 51,412 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 51,412 is 21012 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 288,1416
2 | 288, 1416 |
2 | 144, 708 |
2 | 72, 354 |
3 | 36, 177 |
12, 59 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 24

1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24,59,118,177,236,354,472,708,1416
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 288,1416 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 288,1416 is 24.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,412
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21012
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 24/21012
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 288/51,1416/412 is 24/21012
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 51,412 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,412) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(51,412) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(51,412) = ( 51 × 412 ) / 1
LCM(51,412) = 21012 / 1
LCM(51,412) = 21012
