Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 424/891,2544/823
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 424,2544
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 424,2544 is 424 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 891,823 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 891,823 is 733293 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 424,2544
2 | 424, 2544 |
2 | 212, 1272 |
2 | 106, 636 |
53 | 53, 318 |
1, 6 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 53 = 424

1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,48,53,106,159,212,318,424,636,848,1272,2544
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 424,2544 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 424,2544 is 424.
Lets's calculate LCM of 891,823
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 733293
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 424/733293
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 424/891,2544/823 is 424/733293
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 891,823 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(891,823) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(891,823) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(891,823) = ( 891 × 823 ) / 1
LCM(891,823) = 733293 / 1
LCM(891,823) = 733293
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
