Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 371/93,868/685
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 371,868
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 371,868 is 7 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 93,685 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 93,685 is 63705 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 371,868
7 | 371, 868 |
53, 124 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 = 7

1,2,4,7,14,28,31,62,124,217,434,868
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 371,868 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 371,868 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 93,685
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 63705
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/63705
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 371/93,868/685 is 7/63705
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 93,685 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(93,685) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(93,685) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(93,685) = ( 93 × 685 ) / 1
LCM(93,685) = 63705 / 1
LCM(93,685) = 63705
