Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 656/31,130/3847
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 656,130
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 656,130 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 31,3847 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 31,3847 is 119257 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 656,130
2 | 656, 130 |
328, 65 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,4,8,16,41,82,164,328,656
Factors of 130
List of positive integer factors of 130 that divides 130 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,13,26,65,130
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 656,130 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 656,130 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 31,3847
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 119257
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/119257
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 656/31,130/3847 is 2/119257
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 31,3847 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(31,3847) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(31,3847) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(31,3847) = ( 31 × 3847 ) / 1
LCM(31,3847) = 119257 / 1
LCM(31,3847) = 119257
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
