Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 364/568,948/423
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 364,948
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 364,948 is 4 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 568,423 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 568,423 is 240264 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 364,948
2 | 364, 948 |
2 | 182, 474 |
91, 237 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4

1,2,4,7,13,14,26,28,52,91,182,364
Factors of 948
List of positive integer factors of 948 that divides 948 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,12,79,158,237,316,474,948
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 364,948 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 364,948 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 568,423
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 240264
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/240264
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 364/568,948/423 is 4/240264
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 568,423 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(568,423) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(568,423) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(568,423) = ( 568 × 423 ) / 1
LCM(568,423) = 240264 / 1
LCM(568,423) = 240264
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
