Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 332/81,302/8439
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 332,302
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 332,302 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 81,8439 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 81,8439 is 227853 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 332,302
2 | 332, 302 |
166, 151 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 332

1,2,4,83,166,332
Factors of 302
List of positive integer factors of 302 that divides 302 without a remainder.
1,2,151,302
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 332,302 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 332,302 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 81,8439
3 | 81, 8439 |
27, 2813 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 27 x 2813 = 227853
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/227853
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 332/81,302/8439 is 2/227853
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 81,8439 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(81,8439) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(81,8439) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(81,8439) = ( 81 × 8439 ) / 3
LCM(81,8439) = 683559 / 3
LCM(81,8439) = 227853
