Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 319/992,726/603
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 319,726
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 319,726 is 11 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 992,603 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 992,603 is 598176 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 319,726
11 | 319, 726 |
29, 66 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 = 11

1,11,29,319
Factors of 726
List of positive integer factors of 726 that divides 726 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,11,22,33,66,121,242,363,726
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 319,726 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 319,726 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 992,603
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 598176
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/598176
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 319/992,726/603 is 11/598176
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 992,603 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(992,603) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(992,603) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(992,603) = ( 992 × 603 ) / 1
LCM(992,603) = 598176 / 1
LCM(992,603) = 598176
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
