Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 578/805,452/241
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 578,452
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 578,452 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 805,241 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 805,241 is 194005 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 578,452
2 | 578, 452 |
289, 226 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

List of positive integer factors of 578 that divides 578 without a remainder.
1,2,17,34,289,578
Factors of 452
List of positive integer factors of 452 that divides 452 without a remainder.
1,2,4,113,226,452
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 578,452 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 578,452 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 805,241
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 194005
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/194005
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 578/805,452/241 is 2/194005
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 805,241 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(805,241) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(805,241) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(805,241) = ( 805 × 241 ) / 1
LCM(805,241) = 194005 / 1
LCM(805,241) = 194005
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
