Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 436/21,235/3807
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 436,235
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 436,235 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 21,3807 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 21,3807 is 26649 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 436,235
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,109,218,436
Factors of 235
List of positive integer factors of 235 that divides 235 without a remainder.
1,5,47,235
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 436,235 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 436,235 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 21,3807
3 | 21, 3807 |
7, 1269 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 1269 = 26649
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/26649
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 436/21,235/3807 is 1/26649
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 21,3807 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(21,3807) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(21,3807) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(21,3807) = ( 21 × 3807 ) / 3
LCM(21,3807) = 79947 / 3
LCM(21,3807) = 26649
