Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 349/900,2234/138
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 349,2234
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 349,2234 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 900,138 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 900,138 is 20700 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 349,2234

Factors of 2234
List of positive integer factors of 2234 that divides 2234 without a remainder.
1,2,1117,2234
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 349,2234 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 349,2234 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 900,138
2 | 900, 138 |
3 | 450, 69 |
150, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 150 x 23 = 20700
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20700
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 349/900,2234/138 is 1/20700
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 900,138 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(900,138) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(900,138) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(900,138) = ( 900 × 138 ) / 6
LCM(900,138) = 124200 / 6
LCM(900,138) = 20700
