Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 315/308,794/286
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 315,794
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 315,794 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 308,286 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 308,286 is 4004 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 315,794
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 315 that divides 315 without a remainder.
1,3,5,7,9,15,21,35,45,63,105,315
Factors of 794
List of positive integer factors of 794 that divides 794 without a remainder.
1,2,397,794
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 315,794 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 315,794 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 308,286
2 | 308, 286 |
11 | 154, 143 |
14, 13 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 11 x 14 x 13 = 4004
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4004
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 315/308,794/286 is 1/4004
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 308,286 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(308,286) = 22
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(308,286) x common factors =22 x 1 = 22
LCM(308,286) = ( 308 × 286 ) / 22
LCM(308,286) = 88088 / 22
LCM(308,286) = 4004
