Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 4234/41,6322/728
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 4234,6322
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 4234,6322 is 58 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 41,728 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 41,728 is 29848 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 4234,6322
2 | 4234, 6322 |
29 | 2117, 3161 |
73, 109 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 29 = 58

1,2,29,58,109,218,3161,6322
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4234,6322 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4234,6322 is 58.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,728
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 29848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 58/29848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4234/41,6322/728 is 58/29848
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 41,728 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,728) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,728) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,728) = ( 41 × 728 ) / 1
LCM(41,728) = 29848 / 1
LCM(41,728) = 29848
