Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 361/386,2603/247
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 361,2603
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 361,2603 is 19 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 386,247 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 386,247 is 95342 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 361,2603
19 | 361, 2603 |
19, 137 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 19 = 19

Factors of 2603
List of positive integer factors of 2603 that divides 2603 without a remainder.
1,19,137,2603
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 361,2603 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 361,2603 is 19.
Lets's calculate LCM of 386,247
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 95342
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/95342
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 361/386,2603/247 is 19/95342
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 386,247 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(386,247) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(386,247) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(386,247) = ( 386 × 247 ) / 1
LCM(386,247) = 95342 / 1
LCM(386,247) = 95342
