Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 30/436,130/340
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 30,130
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 30,130 is 10 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 436,340 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 436,340 is 37060 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 30,130
2 | 30, 130 |
5 | 15, 65 |
3, 13 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 5 = 10

Factors of 130
List of positive integer factors of 130 that divides 130 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,13,26,65,130
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 30,130 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 30,130 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 436,340
2 | 436, 340 |
2 | 218, 170 |
109, 85 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 109 x 85 = 37060
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/37060
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 30/436,130/340 is 10/37060
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 436,340 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(436,340) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(436,340) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(436,340) = ( 436 × 340 ) / 4
LCM(436,340) = 148240 / 4
LCM(436,340) = 37060
