Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 392/80,520/2621
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 392,520
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 392,520 is 8 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 80,2621 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 80,2621 is 209680 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 392,520
2 | 392, 520 |
2 | 196, 260 |
2 | 98, 130 |
49, 65 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 = 8

Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 392,520 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 392,520 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 80,2621
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 209680
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/209680
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 392/80,520/2621 is 8/209680
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 80,2621 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(80,2621) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(80,2621) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(80,2621) = ( 80 × 2621 ) / 1
LCM(80,2621) = 209680 / 1
LCM(80,2621) = 209680
