Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 371/890,136/168
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 371,136
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 371,136 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 890,168 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 890,168 is 74760 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 371,136
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,8,17,34,68,136
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 371,136 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 371,136 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 890,168
2 | 890, 168 |
445, 84 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 445 x 84 = 74760
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/74760
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 371/890,136/168 is 1/74760
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 890,168 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(890,168) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(890,168) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(890,168) = ( 890 × 168 ) / 2
LCM(890,168) = 149520 / 2
LCM(890,168) = 74760
