Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 2900/608,1334/427
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 2900,1334
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 2900,1334 is 58 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 608,427 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 608,427 is 259616 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 2900,1334
2 | 2900, 1334 |
29 | 1450, 667 |
50, 23 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 29 = 58

1,2,23,29,46,58,667,1334
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2900,1334 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2900,1334 is 58.
Lets's calculate LCM of 608,427
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 259616
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 58/259616
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2900/608,1334/427 is 58/259616
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 608,427 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(608,427) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(608,427) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(608,427) = ( 608 × 427 ) / 1
LCM(608,427) = 259616 / 1
LCM(608,427) = 259616
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
