Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 418/76,404/3445
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 418,404
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 418,404 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 76,3445 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 76,3445 is 261820 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 418,404
2 | 418, 404 |
209, 202 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,11,19,22,38,209,418
Factors of 404
List of positive integer factors of 404 that divides 404 without a remainder.
1,2,4,101,202,404
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 418,404 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 418,404 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 76,3445
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 261820
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/261820
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 418/76,404/3445 is 2/261820
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 76,3445 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(76,3445) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(76,3445) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(76,3445) = ( 76 × 3445 ) / 1
LCM(76,3445) = 261820 / 1
LCM(76,3445) = 261820
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
