Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 536/23,786/5049
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 536,786
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 536,786 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 23,5049 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 23,5049 is 116127 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 536,786
2 | 536, 786 |
268, 393 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 786
List of positive integer factors of 786 that divides 786 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,131,262,393,786
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 536,786 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 536,786 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,5049
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 116127
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/116127
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 536/23,786/5049 is 2/116127
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 23,5049 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,5049) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,5049) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,5049) = ( 23 × 5049 ) / 1
LCM(23,5049) = 116127 / 1
LCM(23,5049) = 116127
