Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 302/71,952/528
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 302,952
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 302,952 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 71,528 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 71,528 is 37488 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 302,952
2 | 302, 952 |
151, 476 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,151,302
Factors of 952
List of positive integer factors of 952 that divides 952 without a remainder.
1,2,4,7,8,14,17,28,34,56,68,119,136,238,476,952
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 302,952 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 302,952 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,528
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 37488
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/37488
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 302/71,952/528 is 2/37488
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 71,528 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,528) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,528) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,528) = ( 71 × 528 ) / 1
LCM(71,528) = 37488 / 1
LCM(71,528) = 37488
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
