Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3670/53,3002/116
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 3670,3002
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3670,3002 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 53,116 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 53,116 is 6148 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3670,3002
2 | 3670, 3002 |
1835, 1501 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 3002
List of positive integer factors of 3002 that divides 3002 without a remainder.
1,2,19,38,79,158,1501,3002
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3670,3002 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3670,3002 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,116
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6148
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/6148
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3670/53,3002/116 is 2/6148
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 53,116 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,116) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,116) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,116) = ( 53 × 116 ) / 1
LCM(53,116) = 6148 / 1
LCM(53,116) = 6148
