Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 585/159,2318/892
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 585,2318
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 585,2318 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 159,892 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 159,892 is 141828 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 585,2318
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,5,9,13,15,39,45,65,117,195,585
Factors of 2318
List of positive integer factors of 2318 that divides 2318 without a remainder.
1,2,19,38,61,122,1159,2318
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 585,2318 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 585,2318 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 159,892
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 141828
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/141828
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 585/159,2318/892 is 1/141828
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 159,892 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(159,892) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(159,892) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(159,892) = ( 159 × 892 ) / 1
LCM(159,892) = 141828 / 1
LCM(159,892) = 141828
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
