Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 370/43,994/6819
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 370,994
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 370,994 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 43,6819 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 43,6819 is 293217 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 370,994
2 | 370, 994 |
185, 497 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,5,10,37,74,185,370
Factors of 994
List of positive integer factors of 994 that divides 994 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,71,142,497,994
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 370,994 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 370,994 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,6819
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 293217
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/293217
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 370/43,994/6819 is 2/293217
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 43,6819 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,6819) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,6819) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,6819) = ( 43 × 6819 ) / 1
LCM(43,6819) = 293217 / 1
LCM(43,6819) = 293217
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
