Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 388/11,398/5670
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 388,398
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 388,398 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 11,5670 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 11,5670 is 62370 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 388,398
2 | 388, 398 |
194, 199 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 398
List of positive integer factors of 398 that divides 398 without a remainder.
1,2,199,398
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 388,398 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 388,398 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,5670
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 62370
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/62370
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 388/11,398/5670 is 2/62370
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 11,5670 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,5670) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,5670) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(11,5670) = ( 11 × 5670 ) / 1
LCM(11,5670) = 62370 / 1
LCM(11,5670) = 62370
