Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 355/301,800/982
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 355,800
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 355,800 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 301,982 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 301,982 is 295582 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 355,800
5 | 355, 800 |
71, 160 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

1,5,71,355
Factors of 800
List of positive integer factors of 800 that divides 800 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,25,32,40,50,80,100,160,200,400,800
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 355,800 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 355,800 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 301,982
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 295582
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/295582
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 355/301,800/982 is 5/295582
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 301,982 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(301,982) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(301,982) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(301,982) = ( 301 × 982 ) / 1
LCM(301,982) = 295582 / 1
LCM(301,982) = 295582
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
