Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 434/437,133/437
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 434,133
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 434,133 is 7 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 437,437 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 437,437 is 437 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 434,133
7 | 434, 133 |
62, 19 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 = 7

Factors of 133
List of positive integer factors of 133 that divides 133 without a remainder.
1,7,19,133
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 434,133 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 434,133 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 437,437
19 | 437, 437 |
23 | 23, 23 |
1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 19 x 23 x 1 x 1 = 437
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/437
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 434/437,133/437 is 7/437
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 437,437 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(437,437) = 437
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(437,437) x common factors =437 x 1 = 437
LCM(437,437) = ( 437 × 437 ) / 437
LCM(437,437) = 190969 / 437
LCM(437,437) = 437
