Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 364/504,378/383
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 364,378
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 364,378 is 14 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 504,383 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 504,383 is 193032 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 364,378
2 | 364, 378 |
7 | 182, 189 |
26, 27 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 7 = 14

List of positive integer factors of 364 that divides 364 without a remainder.
1,2,4,7,13,14,26,28,52,91,182,364
Factors of 378
List of positive integer factors of 378 that divides 378 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,7,9,14,18,21,27,42,54,63,126,189,378
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 364,378 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 364,378 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 504,383
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 193032
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/193032
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 364/504,378/383 is 14/193032
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 504,383 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(504,383) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(504,383) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(504,383) = ( 504 × 383 ) / 1
LCM(504,383) = 193032 / 1
LCM(504,383) = 193032
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
