Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 441/81,624/248
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 441,624
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 441,624 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 81,248 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 81,248 is 20088 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 441,624
3 | 441, 624 |
147, 208 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

1,3,7,9,21,49,63,147,441
Factors of 624
List of positive integer factors of 624 that divides 624 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,12,13,16,24,26,39,48,52,78,104,156,208,312,624
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 441,624 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 441,624 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 81,248
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 20088
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/20088
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 441/81,624/248 is 3/20088
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 81,248 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(81,248) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(81,248) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(81,248) = ( 81 × 248 ) / 1
LCM(81,248) = 20088 / 1
LCM(81,248) = 20088
