Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 302/242,1193/782
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 302,1193
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 302,1193 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 242,782 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 242,782 is 94622 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 302,1193
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,151,302
Factors of 1193
List of positive integer factors of 1193 that divides 1193 without a remainder.
1,1193
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 302,1193 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 302,1193 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 242,782
2 | 242, 782 |
121, 391 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 121 x 391 = 94622
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/94622
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 302/242,1193/782 is 1/94622
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 242,782 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,782) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,782) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(242,782) = ( 242 × 782 ) / 2
LCM(242,782) = 189244 / 2
LCM(242,782) = 94622
