Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3016/727,1399/254
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 3016,1399
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3016,1399 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 727,254 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 727,254 is 184658 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3016,1399
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,8,13,26,29,52,58,104,116,232,377,754,1508,3016
Factors of 1399
List of positive integer factors of 1399 that divides 1399 without a remainder.
1,1399
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3016,1399 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3016,1399 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 727,254
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 184658
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/184658
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3016/727,1399/254 is 1/184658
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 727,254 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(727,254) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(727,254) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(727,254) = ( 727 × 254 ) / 1
LCM(727,254) = 184658 / 1
LCM(727,254) = 184658
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
