Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 440/42,8054/517
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 440,8054
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 440,8054 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 42,517 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 42,517 is 21714 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 440,8054
2 | 440, 8054 |
220, 4027 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 8054
List of positive integer factors of 8054 that divides 8054 without a remainder.
1,2,4027,8054
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 440,8054 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 440,8054 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 42,517
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21714
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/21714
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 440/42,8054/517 is 2/21714
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 42,517 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(42,517) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(42,517) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(42,517) = ( 42 × 517 ) / 1
LCM(42,517) = 21714 / 1
LCM(42,517) = 21714
