Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 620/43,656/594
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 620,656
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 620,656 is 4 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 43,594 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 43,594 is 25542 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 620,656
2 | 620, 656 |
2 | 310, 328 |
155, 164 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4

1,2,4,5,10,20,31,62,124,155,310,620
Factors of 656
List of positive integer factors of 656 that divides 656 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,41,82,164,328,656
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 620,656 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 620,656 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,594
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 25542
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/25542
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 620/43,656/594 is 4/25542
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 43,594 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,594) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,594) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,594) = ( 43 × 594 ) / 1
LCM(43,594) = 25542 / 1
LCM(43,594) = 25542
