Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 36/413,796/353
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 36,796
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 36,796 is 4 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 413,353 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 413,353 is 145789 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 36,796
2 | 36, 796 |
2 | 18, 398 |
9, 199 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4

List of positive integer factors of 36 that divides 36 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18,36
Factors of 796
List of positive integer factors of 796 that divides 796 without a remainder.
1,2,4,199,398,796
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 36,796 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 36,796 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 413,353
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 145789
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/145789
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/413,796/353 is 4/145789
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 413,353 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(413,353) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(413,353) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(413,353) = ( 413 × 353 ) / 1
LCM(413,353) = 145789 / 1
LCM(413,353) = 145789
