Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 299/843,920/949
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 299,920
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 299,920 is 23 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 843,949 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 843,949 is 800007 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 299,920
23 | 299, 920 |
13, 40 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 23 = 23

1,2,4,5,8,10,20,23,40,46,92,115,184,230,460,920
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 299,920 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 299,920 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 843,949
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 800007
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/800007
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 299/843,920/949 is 23/800007
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 843,949 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(843,949) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(843,949) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(843,949) = ( 843 × 949 ) / 1
LCM(843,949) = 800007 / 1
LCM(843,949) = 800007
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
