Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 526/43,688/9136
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 526,688
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 526,688 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 43,9136 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 43,9136 is 392848 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 526,688
2 | 526, 688 |
263, 344 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,263,526
Factors of 688
List of positive integer factors of 688 that divides 688 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,43,86,172,344,688
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 526,688 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 526,688 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,9136
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 392848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/392848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 526/43,688/9136 is 2/392848
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 43,9136 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,9136) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,9136) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,9136) = ( 43 × 9136 ) / 1
LCM(43,9136) = 392848 / 1
LCM(43,9136) = 392848
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
