Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 600/81,916/271
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 600,916
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 600,916 is 4 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 81,271 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 81,271 is 21951 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 600,916
2 | 600, 916 |
2 | 300, 458 |
150, 229 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4

1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,12,15,20,24,25,30,40,50,60,75,100,120,150,200,300,600
Factors of 916
List of positive integer factors of 916 that divides 916 without a remainder.
1,2,4,229,458,916
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 600,916 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 600,916 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 81,271
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21951
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/21951
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 600/81,916/271 is 4/21951
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 81,271 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(81,271) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(81,271) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(81,271) = ( 81 × 271 ) / 1
LCM(81,271) = 21951 / 1
LCM(81,271) = 21951
